Donald in Mathmagic Land is a Donald Duck featurette which was released on June 26, 1959.
Donald in Mathmagic Land is a Donald Duck featurette which was released on June 26, 1959. It was directed by Hamilton Luske and is 27 minutes in length. Many people collaborated on this project, including Disney artists John Hench and Art Riley, voice talent Paul Frees, and scientific expert Heinz Haber, who had worked on the Disney space shows. This featurette was originally released on a bill with Darby O'Gill and the Little People. In 1959, it was nominated for an Academy Award (Best Documentary - Short Subjects). In 1961, two years after its release, it had the honor of being introduced by Ludwig Von Drake and shown on the first program of Walt Disney's Wonderful World of Color. The film was made available to schools and became one of the most popular educational films ever made by Disney. As Walt Disney explained, "The cartoon is a good medium to stimulate interest. We have recently explained mathematics in a film and in that way excited public interest in this very important subject."
Despite this being a mathematics educational film, a character incorrectly recites the value of the mathematical constant pi. The character states, "Pi is equal to 3.141592653589747, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera." The correct value of pi (to the same amount of digits) is actually 3.141592653589793.

=======================================
NOTE: This video is a edited version of "Energy vs Information" made by jaxxrr (to which all credit goes to), I was very impressed by the production value both the video and music.
Seeing that it received few hits, which may be due to the title and tags. In order for more people to see and enjoy this video I mirrored the edited version, so people won't get too side tracked on the political message. (Although I'm against wars and big oil as well)
Please see the original version if you like here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z1NkoZeTEWc
-=NOTE=-
This video was made BEFORE "VY Canis Majoris" was listed as the largest known star, When this video was made 2006 by it's author JAXXrr, the star "VV Cephei A" was listed as the largest known star.
For a list of current largest "known" stars see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_largest_known_stars
Keep in mind while watching this video that the "largest known stars" are all found in our own galaxy (The Milky Way). We know of only of a very few of the estimated 200-300 Billion stars that make up our galaxy, which is just ONE of at least 300-500 billion galaxies in the visible Universe.

Comments about the performance only please. All others will be removed and blocked.
Aerosmith's "I don't want to miss a thing" is also featured in the clip, for those that keep asking!
For all those that seem to think Paul is a pro in disguise, please realise the following.
- Bath Opera is an amateur opera company staging a small number of productions a few times each year.
- Paul has performed in just 4 four productions with this company
- Paul has attended some masterclasses in Italy. These courses are designed for talented amateurs. All of these are paid for by those attending.
- A few masterclasses, even one with the great man do not constitute "a formal opera training" by any stretch of the imagination.
- Professional opera singers earn their living by treading the boards night after night week-in week-out, year after year with professional opera companies.
- Paul, has never earned a single penny from opera performance, other than winning a tv talent show in 1999 - the winnings funding masterclasses.
- Paul has not performed since 2003.
- He is not a professional opera singer pretending to be a mobile phone sales man, but rather he is a mobile phone salesman aspiring to be an opera singer.
- An operatic voice IS a trained voice.
Hmmmm, perhaps if I can buy a few classes at a pro cookery school, I can pass myself off as a highly experienced pro chef.....hmmmmm......
