Indeed, she is big fun. I poked into here web presence and found that she is currently employed by Kahn Academy as a full-time mathemusician. Oh Happy Day! I think I'm in love.

I still have a hexahexaflexagon that my mom made back in the 60s.

I remember trying to make a dodecahexaflexagon, but could never get it to work properly because it was too thick.

Thanks for the post. Cheered me up from my post election funk. My kids weren’t very interested in this kind of stuff, but my 10 year old granddaughter might be. Beautiful, brainy, and a musician.

I’ve been stumbling across her videos for a while now. Very entertaining and thought provoking stuff.
