A Reaction Video Squared

Numberphile viewers may be familiar with The Parker Square - an ill-fated mathematical construction by Matt Parker.

Well, recently I recorded a follow-up video with mathematician Tony Várilly-Alvarado.

He explained that the elusive “3x3 Magic Square of Squares” may be impossible!

A crumb of comfort for Matt perhaps?

I wanted Matt’s reaction, so asked him to film a “reaction video”.

Enamoured by the farce of it all, I also asked Matt to record a reaction to his reaction.

Matt obliged, and added some great little gags (love the popcorn move!)
