I feel like the motivation is there, but it would be nicer if it were applicable to a wider audience.
The video is clear to me, and the visual explanations are nice. Though maybe some preliminary definitions would be in order, just to remind.
I don’t believe that the style is very unique, but it’s nice and even though I wouldn’t share this video with most of my friends, but with those who are exploring ring theory, it would be appropriate I feel.
For me, it wasn’t very memorable because, as the author pointed out, people tend to learn about this particular ring. Though now I don’t remember whether my professor motivated why there should be a symmetric difference and not just a union, so I liked that part.
Overall, the video was a good reminder for me and I believe it clearly achieved its goal of presenting a more unusual ring structure.
I like quiet voices, but this one is rather soporific.
I have already see the video in YT because the algorithm shown it to me, which is a sign you are doing things right. The animation, rhythm and speech are great, the topic a bit disconnected from this SoME requirement from been for a wide audience.
It would have been a bit better if the sets were different colours or labeled
I found this video very interesting. The animation, the color, the narration the timing all came together very nicely. It was also an interesting topic that captured my attention. Nice work and keep up the good job with creating fun videos.
Positive: The video shows how certain set operations can be used to form a commutative ring with unity on the power set of any set. All conditions are checked and the graphics are helpful.
Negative: No motivation is given why we would consider this ring, or why a commutative ring with unity is interesting. Also, the video is not self contained, since it uses these algebraic terms without further explanation.
Beautifully visual, highly abstract but comes across as intuitive.
