The math in pop culture

As I'm gearing up to actually teach, I'm finding myself experimenting with many things that I never considered part of math.

I have edited together a video. For math.

As I'm spending my precious few weekend hours trying to figure out video editing, I can't help but wonder how much difference it might make for my students. While I might hope that they will start seeing math in their world and in pop culture, I know that's an unreasonable hope. However, if I can make a couple of them think that math class is not such an awful place to be, I think I will be on the right track.
