    I. Links


    Direct links to torrents on The Pirate Bay (Please note: The Pirate Bay gets taken down a lot by governments so if the links below don't work please go the "Videos Available for Download" page. It contains the most updated links):
    • Series I: Videos #1 to #35 for The Language of Mathematics, produced in 2007.
    • Series II: Videos #36 to #58 for The Language of Mathematics, produced in 2008.
    • Series IIIa: Videos #61 to #92 for The Language of Mathematics, produced in 2009.
    • Series IIIb: Videos #93 to #142 for The Language of Mathematics, produced in 2010-2011.
    • Series IVa: Videos #143 to #151 for The Language of Mathematics plus some videos for Math in Real Life, produced in 2011-2013.

    II. Description


    At the request of my readers, in 2009 I began to provide torrents for the math videos. The torrents are available through The Pirate Bay and other file sharing networks.

    Downloads are series specific and the files organized based on their video number and/or year, i.e, the order in which the videos were produced. See the table of contents for The Language of Mathematics and Math in Real Life to put things into context.

    Please note that videos from Series I, II, and IIIa are tagged with chycho.com, and those for Series IIIb and Series IVa are tagged with 420math.com. Since videos have gone through an additional edit in the process of putting this site together, they may vary slightly from those in the torrents.

    III. Video Update

      1. Hi Shahnil, thanks for the heads up, the links are dead on this page but they are still active on the "Videos Available for Download" page... I provided links to the proxies on that one so they haven't been taken out. Here is the link: http://420math.blogspot.ca/2012/03/videos-available-for-download.html

        Sometimes The Pirate Bay gets taken out - the big boys don't like us to share - but the site is very good at getting back up fast.

        I'll fix the links on here and put up a little note that the "Videos Available for Download" page will contain the most updated links.

        Thanks again for the message, much appreciated.

        Peace,

        chycho
