But what is a Fourier series? From heat flow to drawing with circles | DE4
Fourier series, from the heat equation epicycles.

An equally valuable form of support is to simply share some of the videos.
Special thanks to these supporters:
12 minutes of pure Fourier series animations:
Some viewers made apps that create circle animations for your own drawing. Check them out!
Thanks to Stuart@Biocinematics for the one-line sketch of Fourier via twitter. As it happens, he also has an educational YouTube channel:
Small correction: at 9:33, all the exponents should have a pi^2 in them.

If you want to contribute translated subtitles or to help review those that have already been made by others and need approval, you can click the gear icon in the video and go to subtitles/cc, then “add subtitles/cc“. I really appreciate those who do this, as it helps make the lessons accessible to more people.
