It appears that MSRI is listed as one of the “sponsors” of the website, and apparently that means the website can use the MSRI logo, but the website claims that it is independent of MSRI. The website looks very nice — at first glance. But I don’t think MSRI would intentionally support a video that claims 1+2+3+ . . . = -1/12, since the research institute seems mainly interested in mathematical truth. —Dan On Feb 28, 2014, at 1:33 PM, rcs@xmission.com wrote:
It looks like MSRI is getting into serious outreach. Bob Baillie passed along the url http://www.numberphile.com I haven't looked at the insides yet, but the front page looks tasty.
