Wow. Just, wow.

I honestly cannot believe this, 24 hours after launching this page and you all have already pledged over $1,000 per video!  You can probably guess how motivating this is to keep creating content, both standalone videos and "Essence of" series, and to make them all as good as I know how.   As a small token of gratitude, I've attached a pi creature full of gratitude (the blue one's name is "Randolph", by the way).

I'm really looking forward to the feedback you guys give on the draft "Essence of calculus" videos I give you over the next few months.

Wow.  Just, wow.

Thanks, you're a big inspiration. I am a doctor and a programmer who loves math and keeps spending hours on internalizing the intuition behind each concept. Your videos are now giving what I never got from books or going to math classes! Big thanks!

Thanks for all of your work! I used your series on Linear Algebra to visualize a lot of the ideas for a class I was teaching. We were able to get much further than previous years thanks to your visualizations and I think the students have a much stronger understanding than previous years. So thanks!

I love your videos! I'm working on my bachelors in Pure Math and planning on getting my PhD and going into research. Your series on Linear Algebra put the subject in a whole new light for me and I now consider it my favorite subject. Can't wait for your future videos!

Hi 3Blue1Brown, I actually have a Master's degree in theoretical computer science and I was always deeply passionate about really understanding the essence of complicated ideas and then teaching and explaining these ideas in ways that makes them look simple and easy to understand. To me you are an essence of such approach and I am excited to support you. I personally cannot wait for your series on differential equations and complex analysis!

This is really touching to read, thanks so much for sharing.

You've helped me maintain self-confidence in my mathematical abilities. I really mean it when I say I would not have done well in Linear Algebra if it weren't for you. Too many videos about how to solve stuff, but nothing about the intuition behind such a simple subject!

I can't help but feel the same :)

This is really great, especially for people with a job irrelevant to math but still wants to learn math further in private like me! Hope you will pick up abstract algebra in the future!

We are so fortunate to have been born in a time in human history where we have the technology to create communities like this one.

This is awesome!

You are doing a service to humanity. No less than that. I have never seen math explained in such a passionate and clear-minded way. I am a math lover. I have been since I was 6. My wish is for every kid to have access to videos like these so they can appreciate the beauty and usefulness of math at a very profound level. Thank you very much!

This is so sweet. Thank you so much for your support, and please pass along my sincere thanks to your son for being such a fan, and I hope he keeps loving math this much.

My son is 13 and loves your videos. He wrote me an impassioned email about your Patreon campaign and how we should support it. I was bemused by your description of the $2 level (as 100% greater impact than the $1 level!) and couldn't resist moving up from my son's initial request. I love watching him soak in and often rewatch many of the videos. He also pauses to read or even show me the inspiring quotes. My son is also checking in on your campaign progress every few hours (it's at $1300 right now). Your videos are amazing and are helping thousands of people. Thanks for doing what you do!

I really can't thank you enough. It means a lot to me to know that you guys value these videos as much as I do.

3blue1brown

I've never supported anyone on Patreon, and I can't pledge a lot because I'm an undergrad. But your videos are so worth it that I just can't not do this. Also, it was moving that we got to give you such a strong feedback that you decided to do this for a living.

Thank you very much for your work! Really amazing... I watched the Essence of linear algebra series and I just can't wait to see more series like that.

Ha ha, I also asked my undergraduate quantum mechanics students to watch the series to get a better visual understanding of linerar algebra before appying it in a physics context.

Your methods of instruction resonates with me simply because I'm a visual thinker. Mathematics has an abstract element that appeals to me, however it's sometimes difficult to see the abstract in an equation. To see an equation in motion is absolutely priceless!!!!

fully deserved, I sent your Linear Algebra series to my undergraduate QM class, I think it should be essential watching for any student!

You deserve it! Keep making exceptional quality content.

We shall do everything to keep pi creatures happy!... I guess we care about you as well :)
