August Updates! Math + Catgirls

[This Patreon is still on hiatus, so you won't be charged until further notice]

(2 min read)

If you haven't heard, my pal Grant Sanderson (3Blue1Brown) is doing a "math explainer" contest! There's prizes, and the deadline's a week from now: August 22. (I, uh, really should've shared this earlier)

If you've not done math-explanation before, well, you're exactly who Grant's trying to encourage to give it a shot! Anything, from blog posts to comics to videos to games & explorables, are welcome:

🌞 Summer of Math Exposition 🌞

I loved the math-exposition advice Grant gave in his announcement video, so I summarized it into a tiny comic here:

Further resources:

• My own advice on math/science-communication writing
• Tools to make your own interactive math diagrams

. . . . . .

Speaking of unrelated segues, I animated a catgirl:

It's for a musical animation about Femboy Hooters, which yes is an old meme but still good darn it.

One of many reasons I went on hiatus is because my work wasn't a fun challenge anymore. Animating this catgirl has been the most fun I've had in a long time. Besides the music production course I took in April, I haven't felt a "flow state" in making something for years.

So, I want to experiment making more cute/lewd art, but since I know the vast majority of you are NOT into that –– plus I want to keep this Patreon marked as SFW –– I've set up a new 18+ Patreon!

😻 The Singing Catgirl Patreon 😻

There's already some exclusive sneak-peek content on there! I'll give you a hint what it is: 🍑🍆

I don't think making lewd art will ever be my full-time gig to the exclusion of math/science-communication –– I really do like learning stuff & sharing it accessibly –– but erotica is the one genre I haven't explored yet as an artist. This new Patreon gives me the option of doing stuff like that. I figure, at the least, I can just pause & unpause my two different Patreons, whenever I want to switch between "nerdy Nicky" and "dirty Nicky".

. . . . . .

Anyway, summer's here! I hope this update was... interesting. Again, check out Grant's math contest, and/or my catgirl Patreon.

As they say in the yearbooks:

HAGS (Have a Great Summer!)
