Howdy,
How was your Pi Day? We realised MIT students had been creating weird and impressive videos every Pi Day for years and have now added this to our list of things that we look forward to annually.
Since then, we've been tracking earthquakes and the phases of the moon. We have also discovered a disco ball that thinks it's a chameleon.
Peace,
Ashley
