Math City Bubble And Platform Zero
- Matt visited Math City in Leeds and made a bubble big enough to enclose himself.
- He also photographed himself on the newly opened platform zero as a quirky tradition.
Pumpkin Through Pumpkin Trick
- Matt experimentally carved a diagonal tunnel through a pumpkin so one same-size pumpkin could pass through another.
- He used photos and careful orientation to cut a band-shaped hole bigger than the original pumpkin's apparent size.
Orientation Changes Cross-Section Size
- The smallest and largest cross-sections of an object differ with orientation, letting a shape pass through a seemingly smaller hole.
- This geometric fact underlies Prince Rupert's Cube and enables surprising 'hole bigger than object' constructions.
