I spent tonight doing research for a future video. No really. It's vital research on a different type of CRT screen…

UPDATE: The site visit went well! Looks like we have a filming venue. Video should be out around January on the current schedule.

That is definitely some super vital research going on right there!

Don't forget about the vector based tubes used in the Tempest machines. Multiple colors. Oooo... and you can also talk about the penetron display technology. That even sounds mathy.

At last someone is taking my global devastation by Asteroids ramblings to heart... surely that is why so much of my youth was taken in those secret government training establishments. First we trained with paddles then they moved us up to left and right movement plus blasters and then these. The training programme was amazingly far advanced at the time... they even made us pay for our own training. I'm ready for my call up to duty at any time! ...... Or did we actually deal with the threat at the time [Enders Game style] and they wouldn't tell us?

If anybody can make vector maths interesting it is Matt. Bring on the dot products.

Matt Parker

I will be very happy if I can get some dot products in there!

Matt Parker

Well, I don't fully remember last night but I'm missing a lot of quarters and I seem to be strangely good at shooting asteroids. So, I've not disproved you theory…

Matt Parker

We are deciding if we're going to do colours or not. Sadly we cannot find an original Star Wars arcade machine.

Matt Parker

Ok, so that was a brief pause between vital research.

Thomas Gibson

If we're going for vectors you definitely have to get a Vectrex!

Rémy GRANDIN

Technicly, everything can be called research if the resercher has enought fun ! I would say it's something like potentiality of good research material = (amount of fun the researsher has gathering data)² x time spent

Matt Parker

Well, we had a lot of fun over a long period of time, so by your calculation it was some high quality research (potentially).

Matt Parker

I would love a Vextrex! Maybe one day I'll waste some cash and buy one for a video.

Joshua Doades

Ask ashens if you can use his for a video! That'd be a cool collaboration to see
