Amazingly creative film about Pythagoras!
Star Cycles is a great educational movie that is not your typical "Nova" documentary... it is an artistic film that presents Pythagoras as one of the greatest heroes in history.

Star Cycles is a great educational movie that is not your typical "Nova" documentary... it is an artistic film that presents Pythagoras as one of the greatest heroes in history. The original music and geometric animation are syncronized to provide a backdrop for the detailed information presentated in each of 10 segments. While the presentation is perhaps unorthodox, the movie holds up well on repeated viewings that reveal more and more each time it is seen. I was amazed how little I knew about Pythagoras and his contribution to not just mathematics, but more importantly, to the world of music. The octave is a Pythagorean construct that scientifically proves the harmony of the Universe, the music of the spheres.
