Grant makes some amazing content.
His visualization of the Fourier Transform[1] actually enabled me to understand the how it was happening behind the what was happening with one of the most used algorithms in computing.

- Terr_ 3y agoIn terms of simple word-explanations, I've always thought of it as taking a flat strip of LED lights (imagine the eyes of Battlestar Galactica Cylon robots), then sticking a nail through the center and then spinning it around. Depending on how fast you spin it, the resulting blob-o-light will have different shapes. If it's a simple oscillation and you spin it at exactly the right rate(s), you'll get a straight line again, whereas pure chaos will always make round blobs.
