An in-process list of subjects for a compilation image and some Mathematica code
This is an old list of subjects for a compilation image.
At the bottom of the file I've dumped the Mathematica code to render it in an image.
More visually pleasing ways to do it have been suggested to me here:
https://mathematica.stackexchange.com/questions/2768/how-to-partition-a-disk-into-individually-spaced-bricks
I will recompile it eventually and make some nice pic.
Please comment if you feel I should add something or re-order.

% In this video we're going to explain the Weierstrass factorization theorem, giving rise to infinite product representations of functions. Classical examples are that of the Gamma function or the sine function.

Text used in the minimal logic and principle of explosion video
This is the text used in the video
https://youtu.be/eeLa9tIhFMs
Minimal logic, or minimal calculus, is an intuitionistic and paraconsistent logic,
that rejects both the Law of Excluded Middle (LEM) as well as
the Principle Of Explosion (Ex Falso Quodlibet, EFQ).

Let $a,b,c$ be non-zero elements in a field $\mathbb F$ with characteristic not $2$. \\
In this video we're discussing an unital algebras in $\mathrm{Mat}_{2\times 2}$ for some field.\\
More concretely, they are representations of (abstract) quaternion algebras are denoted by $(a,b\, |\, F)$.

\section{Kinetic energy and moment of inertia tensor of a rigid body}
Fix an (inertial) coordinate system, $O$.
``Clearly'', the configuration space of a rigid body in this system is ${\mathbb R}^3\times {\rm SO}(3).$
