There are a lot of videos about infinity and the Hilbert Hotel. In this video I tried to extend the standard hotel video past the limit where you can pack people into rooms. Plus we did it with some great 3D animators and fun blobby creatures.

A new video is almost done. I'm looking to post this Friday or Saturday at the latest, just in time for everyone's favorite math-inspired day (and Einstein's birthday). Can you help me pick the title and thumbnail?
Hey everyone,
I'm a big fan of experimentation. It's probably the reason why some of my videos look very different from others and why sometimes they don't work out as I'd hoped. But as Einstein put it: 'A person who never made a mistake nev...
