How math saved my life | Jason Padgett

Jason Padgett wasn’t a good student, and for the longest time he was proud of living a life a mile wide and an inch deep. But after a head injury he developed, among other things, a fascination with mathematically generated imagery and a newfound love of learning. Hear his personal theory of math, fractals and everything.

    Because he literary says "literary" all the time, as his genius has done nothing to his vocabulary. Also, he has not shown any sign of being a genius, but at the same time several signs of being a fraud. His "realizations" are at the level of a six year old child. And then he got OCD, and couldn't stop drawing lines. Has he shown any real skill with math? No. He just draw lines, and then he met a mathematician who could explain his lines with her knowledge of math. She could. Because she knows math. He could not. He could just draw lines and tell everybody that he is a genius. Open your eyes, man :P Hey, I can even calculate any weekday from any random date, and additionally, I can solve a rubix cube! Guess I am a genius too, right? No. But people who believe that I am because of those "skills" are at best ignorant. And in the kingdom of the blind, the one eyed dwarf is king.

    A really intense acid trip made me have HPPD for over a year. Mild hallucinations all the time, visually and auditory, and I thought in a very abstract sense. Everything felt computer simulated and fake. For 6 months I did not feel safe to drive so would have other people drive me around as much as I could. But I feel like I came out of it a more intelligent person, and I think I actually have clearer vision and hearing because of it. Haven't done any drugs since.

    Back in 12th grade, My friends and I smoked some weed and something else was mixed in. I remember being frozen in time and then everything was moving frame by frame. Sometime things would zoom in and then zoom out. My heart was palpitating so hard. Anyways, it took me a while to get back into reality but when I did I never did drugs again and applied myself to school. It's funny because I had a 2.6 in high school and a 4.0 in college, and then went on to graduate school. Don't get me wrong, I worked hard and nothing came easy. But, I also wonder if I would be in the same position if I didn't go through that experience.

I did a very, very large amount of shrooms as a part of my spiritual experimentation and I saw and felt things that can barely be put into words, and I understand what hes talking about too. There are many different patterns on many different levels on every single thing around us, and I think they are all connected in some way.

    After a tbi, I went from honors math being fun to failing. Then, I saw wavelengths, particles, and patterns of light for years. The only other person to understand was a quantum physicist who also saw the same. Then I had another accident and got a few punches to the head. Things changed again including my dialects and speech. I had to learn how to read again at 35. At 15 post tbi, I had a perfect SAT score for English. It's frustrating to be this stupid now. This gives me hope that my brain can and will make new neural pathways.

But I had memory lapses, and feared I had brain damage, so I got my IQ tested. I already knew my IQ (120) because I'd been tested before. Got tested, and was told my IQ had gone UP at least 17 points, to 137. IQ is supposed to remain stable over a lifetime, barring major illlness or stress. Began connecting the dots.

    *Interesting talent !* It would be more easy to understand his drawings, if he used colors that represent depth. Blue for deep, red for middle-deep, and yellow for the near. Or something similar.

    That wouldn't follow the color spectrum. It would need to follow purple, blue, green, yellow, orange, red to be the right way, or the reverse of that order.

    I and two of my daughters are engrs. One of them had a concussion while playing Rugby in college, and says that it improved her way of thinking technically. I never got the concussion, but I can still relate to this man's story. I was an awful HS student, and that is partly due to one particularly awful math teacher. After graduating, I quickly became a father, which delayed and slowed my part-time progress at our local college. That is how I got put in a math class together with my younger brother. That made learning math competitive for me. The light starting flickering, and I became a math freak. And that HS teacher? I had her again as a professor in college, and she "taught" the same as before. Referring back to something said in this video, it is important to get the concepts of what you are trying to do, and that is where she always fell way short.

    I tutored algebra at school with teachers while I was a student myself. Some of the tutees will wait for me while there were actual teachers available Simply because I was able to explain shit in everyday life terms. Teaching is an art and if you are not good at the art of explaining things you shouldn't be a teacher. Do research or some

They also were calling me during the class to explain for "stupid" students...I think there is no such a stupid student its just unqualified teacher! Coz once I explain for them they get an A ... till today I teach math for free coz its my passion n every body should understand its not a class its just a game that you should enjoy!

    @12:26 (I wish, I would have learned that way before i took theis math classes, so the concept would have been embedded first) This is EXACTLY what I wanted to get since my childhood. I am an engineer (a bad one), who used to ask teachers that please teach me with PRACTICAL examples. I never understand completely what the sin theta, beta, alfa etc and the other boring stuff. In my junior years, I used to ask teachers, while taking math, algebra, geometry etc classes, that what the CONCEPT behind equations? give me practical examples. But, sorry to say, they could not.... because, they didn't know also. I am still the same, I understand every thing quickly, if get the practical example, otherwise, my brain doesn't understand what is going on.
