Clio you were my uni lecturer at Sydney Uni 16 years ago. Thanks for the laughs, it was really fun going to every class, and this video is just a reminder of how easily a student can engage when the teacher knows how to connect with the audience.
USydney really disappointed me and thousands of other International students with the way their online education undermined our presence. Really sad to see their failure at mgmt.
My immediate impression of Dr Clio Cresswell is that she - unlike so many people who deliver otherwise wonderful TED talks - is in possession of comic timing. The jokes aren't great, but the timing is on and that is so much better than the thousands of other TED talks when the timing is off, even if the jokes are on. Others might say this about many people who deliver these talks, but she is the first person who I look at and think "Whatever you had chosen to do, you would've been brilliant at it."
Imagine if most Math teachers were as skilled at connecting concepts to purpose while keeping it all the way alive!! The world would have made at least 1000 more years’ worth of development. Brilliant delivery!
When a man gets married, he expects his wife not to change, but she does. When a woman gets married, she expects her husband to change, but he doesn't.
I really wish she would have gone more into detail about some of the actual variables within those equations, at least in a cursory manner, rather than just going on about math being cool. I don't expect a full proof of the male hormone equation, but it would have been nice to get at least a quick run-through of what these equations actually mean in a more holistic sense.
Emmanuel Garcia Heh heh I could not agree more - glad you said it. I was thinking as she signed off that she never went into the "proof." I'll wager seeing the proof, or at least the hypothesis explained, is probably why every viewer, even the viewers most allergic to maths, clicked on and watched the video.
From a distance she reminds me of Jodie Foster in the movie contact. And kind of has the same mannerisms. And, Carl Sagan who wrote the book, included some of these concepts in it as well.
Some intriguing elements in this talk. I got a connection between language and math that I hadn’t thought of before. It reminded me of Isaac Asimov’s Foundation series.
I thought I won't finish the video because its like 14 minutes, but this lady got me hooked to the end, not exactly life saving content but the mode of presentation and the humour is pretty interesting
So in the fututre, when I reach the climax with a woman, I will say afterwords: Honey, did you workout the equation totally or am I a fast counting mathmatician.... hahaha.
I love how Clio touched on what I go through every day. I manage a large database with an interface that slightly changes with every project. I try to explain to people that you need the "same" data for each point but they can't seem to realise that it is EXACTLY the same. Not just like, not almost the same, EXACTLY. Then I try to explain it and I get a robot dance with the quoting "Does not compute". Shits me up the wall.
Yeah, I bet if someone actually lived to be a thousand years old and you asked them how today differs from the past, they'd say "Meh, it's pretty much the same". (BTW, I'm going to steal your expression "Shits me up the wall" and use it on a regular basis)
In lieu of anything really having to do with mathematics, we learn that Dr. Cresswell is an excellent speaker (she'd make the phone book worthy of a quarter hour), she has been working out (not really supported by anything other than her muscle top and those chic gym slacks), she is very smart, and she has a great sense of humor. I watch a TEDx talk like this, "...and I think to myself, what a wonderful world."
Typical, boosting of worthless Dr title in her defense, so what? Sense of humor maybe and it's ok, but relating sex and mathematics is just stupid. Showing of meaningless formulas is insulting the intelligence of non mathematically savvy audience.
***** you are bold and I appreciate that in people. Thanks for being fearless in your comment. PhD titles are not worthless in my opinion. I am working on finishing just an Associates and the material is not taken lightly, even at this basic level. Imagine an Ph. D. level; dude that is a serious information and learning. I find the formula highly interesting. I want to stay married when I get there. A mathematical formula about having a more "stable" companionship. That is important to many people. Your quality of life relies on your choice of partner.
Why on Earth didn't we all get our math teachers like this? Or physics? There's something fundamentally wrong with the whole education system. Globally!
This has an easy answer. (I have a degree in physics and did teaching too, this is a pattern I observed) Math and physics are difficult (she touches on why in her talk) => only 'clever' people can understand it - bcs they have more (than you) abstract, logical or mathematical thinking => they lack the EQ, social, creative thinking + they don't see why you don't understand it => they don't have the ability to explain well or they don't explain math and physics very well Simple as that; the more clever the professor, the harder is to understand him. I see it on myself too. The other point is the best (possible) teachers don't stay in education, bcs going into research or private sector brings them more money or value... Do you think she is a teacher? Of course not, she is working on her research and once in a year makes a science-pop presentation.
Great presentation. It gives you a flavour of how math can explain the world we live in. I don't think it would help for her to give us the meaning of each symbol as it would need deeper explaination. It is supposed to stimulate to the point that we look them up ourselves which is a better way to learn about such an intricate subject. Love the SHOES!
It is disheartening to read the first several comments below. Her presentation was quite fascinating. In particular, her emphasis that mathematics is the study of pattern recognition is something everyone should ponder. As a musician, I know that pattern recognition is also at the heart of what I do.
I was in awe with the way you make things connect with mathematics. If thats the case, then we can actually figure out the pattern to each thing we do and deal the next problem with a similar equation, just the variables changes.
eCKo0rongo I wasn't reducing her to her hair colour. I just mentioned it. And she's making ludicrous claims in the name of feminism, and women's bitterness. If she's a professor, then she should know better, and have more sense. She's just taking a prurient subject and trying to get laughs. And all the women and manginas gladly oblige. Real tabloid stuff.
This brilliant woman mathematician is right. My husband and I have been practicing social distancing for 34 years. It works. We feel free to fight and disagree. We don't always have to know what each other are doing. Suspicion, jealousy, possessiveness, being demanding and controlling can destroy a marriage, or any other relationship very quickly.
Around 1987, if memory serves, in one book on Weddings, it said : "Leave some space between you" or something like that. Of course, in a forced Quarantine, sometimes after 6 months, you just wanna scream! Even with someone you Love!!!!!

Dr Clio Cresswell - It's Pi Day - 3/14 March 14th here in the NYC metro area USA. I stumbled across this video, because today is math day! Thanks for an awesome talk! 🤙🏼✌🏼❤
+anomalousresult Lol! Maybe to some extent. But if you actually read through most comments, I find it difficult to see this having turned out different; having said that with dudes talking about another dude's body fetishising on his body together with his presentation.
+busTedOaS That wouldn't make sense though. Wouldn't that defeat the purpose of her presentation. I would understand if she intended to get some attention on the subject, but sexuality just happens to be part of her research and presentation. So I'd doubt if her plan was to get people to only have sex on their minds and remember that subject alone.
+Fidel Tshivhasa No, and that's not what you said. The figure you gave was 80%, not the whole audience, which I thought is reasonable. Seriously, why do you think she chose this topic to apply her mathematical Skills to? Because pure math doesn't get you rich or an a TED Stage. Sex sells, and here is an attractive Lady knowing how to get our attention. Don't be fooled, this was a calculated career decision.
Mathematics and music have been the subject of an international, spontaneous community of passionate communicators for thousands of years. And sex. This was really great. Thank you!
I think she use gear coz on her left arm front deltoid there are spots which is caused by using injections, maybe I'm wrong. By the way i have seen your videos, keep up the good work.
WOW! I'm so impressed I saw the name of one of my University professors on one of the papers. He did teach us some mathematical modeling of the relationship between him and his wife indeed. Now I know he was not kidding...
I once told a friend that "I don't want to compromise with love" (as in I don't want to enter a serious relationship with someone for whom I don't have any deeper feelings). He told me that "If you can't compromise, you're never going to be able to have a relationship". I don't remember whether I managed to clarify what I meant but if we have a similar conversation again, I'm going to bring up the study she's referring to.
Clio, you're the best reason I've seen to go down under. If there were such a thing as Australia's ambassador to mathematics, you'd have my vote. We've come so far since John Nash's beautiful mind delivered win-win-win technology. ...but wait, what about those 2 original equations...the ones promising 95% predictive value for compatibility? How could you leave us hanging so? What are the variables? Explain please? On a personal note, please share with the class. How has that equation worked for you? Have you applied it? How's that outcome?
For the hyper-critical: 1. She presented the 'forest/tree':'love/sex' metaphor to show innovative ways to self-motivate in particular tasks. 2.She discussed mathematical relationships that may inspire future behavioral mathematicians (e.g. brain and testosterone production cycles, Safe TB treatments) 3. She described the importance of the linguistic link between observation, internalization, and linguistic expression as it relates to causality. Not a bad talk.
And by the way, let me add... after reading a lot of the comments here, I'm baffled by why so many are negative or so superficial. This was a well done presentation and a fascinating look at the connections between the world and mathematics. Brilliant insights that, I guess, just went over the heads of a lot of these viewers.
I'm french, and i can asure you that french math are so much more complexe than those you learn at American high school or so on. I also studied amercican mathematics 'cause of an english option i did, and it was so much easier to resolve. So i think that, depending from the country you'r from, math will be easy or not because of the way of thinking and the culture of that country.
Maths and the City. Thanks Clio for your Allan Pease inspired 1970's talk that no man could have gotten away with. Many (mainly women) would have claimed men simply were not capable of doing the maths while their mind was so thoroughly engaged in other pursuits. The only possible exception is Emeritus Professor Hanna von Neumann, ANU. :)
"They predict with 95% accuracy" She should say with 95% confidence. The math equations are supposed to model a complex phenomenon, not an imprecise measurement.
Abdel Armstr, nope. If she ment discreet values like 'survived 6 years' or not then you make a confusion matrix to assess the validity of a model and one of the measures is an accuracy.
Can't believe there were no likes to this comment. Biology, physics, chemistry have always been core sciences. Math could be called the language of science. I would say bio-psychology and behaviorism are soft sciences, while freudian/jungian/piaget psychology not science at all... more a philosophy of personality and thought.
as a mathematician myself, medical and aerospace engineering, i like this video. As someone who has also had to study psychology, you learn that compromising can be twisted into enabling by master manipulators.
I have always loved math because it is so exact, 2+2 is always 4, whereas in "English" even the phonics of our alphabet is perverse. Math is fun because it is like solving puzzles or riddles, and the answer you arrive at is either correct or not, that doesn't change. As for you second statement, I am learning that principle through experience. I am married to a chronic victim whose problems are always someone else's fault and any error made is a personal attack meant to kill her chance for happiness. I want to see her happy, but obviously she doesn't, so I quit.
@@aleksandar4923 master manipulatirs are good at using your own compassion againat you. They know how to play the victim so good, that our empathy and compassion get toyed with, making us think its sad and helpless for them
As a student of philosophy, I was skeptic regarding such issues which is very complicated but She used metaphoric language so I could understand something about excitement and relationship how brain works. Afterall Im proud of Her bravery.
Really interesting altho broader than expected. The msg: don't marry someone that you feel you have to compromise alot with. It's healthy to compromise but If one or both feel they don't get to do most of what they want to do it isn't likely to work out.... Great delivery!
so she started off with an interesting topic, the math of a good marriage, and then just adhd'ed around the place and im still looking for the end of the marriage equation...
I have no idea what she as talking about -but I watched the whole video- as I would watch her teach anything: ballet, philosophy, algebra, anatomy, whatever..
This lady is stunning and even more important exactly correct I am no match wizard but I have used all of what she describes in this short video all my life. This is why the times we live in now are so exciting learning and living is. Awesome and these red videos are great
I knew a few classmates that could have used this to know math could be interesting and fun. I was lucky having a fellow female student who did not understand having ask so many questions all I did was listen. Math was my major in high school and into computer business in college.
You can be just as precise and exacting with words. Everyone has their way of connecting the dots. Everyone has a structure for interpreting the experience of being alive. A framework or world view. The more accurate, detailed and cohesive your framework, the better it will serve you. I like fiddling with words like she seems to like doing math.
Great start for humans to begin thinking on hormonal intelligence. It's necessary to learn to understand the changes in our bodies and to teach our children how to control hormonal ups and downs. I would ask for more but now with the insights of endocrinologists and psychologists.

The angle of the dangle is affected by the heat of the meat.
is inversely proportionate
David Leung.. but it's the throb of the knob that did the job!!
The dimensions of the pole must be equal or greater than the volume of the hole. Otherwise it's hot dog in a hallway time.
Haha
Kkkkkkkkkkk
I wish my math teachers were that attractive.
This content is simply brilliant. I really appreciate the effort and knowledge shared.
I would definitely "do maths" with her.
"Alexa, show me clickbait."
What is your favorite species of Iguana? 🦎
WOW! I'm so impressed I saw the name of one of my University professors on one of the papers. He did teach us some mathematical modeling of the relationship between him and his wife indeed. Now I know he was not kidding...
I once told a friend that "I don't want to compromise with love" (as in I don't want to enter a serious relationship with someone for whom I don't have any deeper feelings).
He told me that "If you can't compromise, you're never going to be able to have a relationship".
I don't remember whether I managed to clarify what I meant but if we have a similar conversation again, I'm going to bring up the study she's referring to.
Clio, you're the best reason I've seen to go down under. If there were such a thing as Australia's ambassador to mathematics, you'd have my vote. We've come so far since John Nash's beautiful mind delivered win-win-win technology.
...but wait, what about those 2 original equations...the ones promising 95% predictive value for compatibility? How could you leave us hanging so? What are the variables? Explain please? On a personal note, please share with the class. How has that equation worked for you? Have you applied it? How's that outcome?
Best gym motivation TedTalk
For the hyper-critical:
1. She presented the 'forest/tree':'love/sex' metaphor to show innovative ways to self-motivate in particular tasks.
2.She discussed mathematical relationships that may inspire future behavioral mathematicians (e.g. brain and testosterone production cycles, Safe TB treatments)
3. She described the importance of the linguistic link between observation, internalization, and linguistic expression as it relates to causality.
Not a bad talk.
Also not a good one
Fastest 12 minutes of my life and I take away the most important things while being entertained. This woman kills for presentations.
And by the way, let me add... after reading a lot of the comments here, I'm baffled by why so many are negative or so superficial. This was a well done presentation and a fascinating look at the connections between the world and mathematics. Brilliant insights that, I guess, just went over the heads of a lot of these viewers.
My
@Witty Witty ARE YOU JUST COPY/PASTING THAT ONE REPLY ONTO EVERY POSITIVE COMMENT ABOUT THE VIDEO?!
I'm french, and i can asure you that french math are so much more complexe than those you learn at American high school or so on. I also studied amercican mathematics 'cause of an english option i did, and it was so much easier to resolve. So i think that, depending from the country you'r from, math will be easy or not because of the way of thinking and the culture of that country.
4 million views. Encouraging that so many people take mathematics to heart. Wonder why. Thought maths were a dull subject ...
I'm not sure the heart is the primary organ driving people here.
+Ted L. nice
TavernSenses no it is the MATHEMATICIAN !
menis paraskevas I know
***** Nor the brain
Very intelligent lady, with a sense of humor and a great look, you could listen to her for hours; I wish I had that kind on Math teacher at school.
Well it's obvious what I could not stop thinking about while watching this!
maths?..
+ultra8magnus are you saying people shouldn't be in public if they think about sex?
Maths and the City.
Thanks Clio for your Allan Pease inspired 1970's talk that no man could have gotten away with. Many (mainly women) would have claimed men simply were not capable of doing the maths while their mind was so thoroughly engaged in other pursuits. The only possible exception is Emeritus Professor Hanna von Neumann, ANU. :)
At least she made the audience laugh. That's rare in a Ted talk
This the best talk I’ve ever heard if I don’t think about what I’m listening to.
Lol
So basically she didn't say anything about the topic in question
You wanted to see a MILF, you saw a MILF. What more do you want.
I hope there's at least snacks for the audience. If not its torture!
Who cares about the topic!?
Welcome to TedTalks.
you are just jealous her biceps are bigger than you future
"They predict with 95% accuracy"
She should say with 95% confidence. The math equations are supposed to model a complex phenomenon, not an imprecise measurement.
Abdel Armstr, nope. If she ment discreet values like 'survived 6 years' or not then you make a confusion matrix to assess the validity of a model and one of the measures is an accuracy.
Piotr Zieliński what's a confusion matrix? To derive what value?
The moth
Comes down to the same. If i can accuratley predict the pattern of a phenomenon i can just as well call it accuracy
don't get too hung up on a word.
Well one thing for sure - her figures are perfect
nope
Biology is not a soft science, it's a natural science in which mathematics has always been present
Can't believe there were no likes to this comment. Biology, physics, chemistry have always been core sciences. Math could be called the language of science. I would say bio-psychology and behaviorism are soft sciences, while freudian/jungian/piaget psychology not science at all... more a philosophy of personality and thought.
as a mathematician myself, medical and aerospace engineering, i like this video. As someone who has also had to study psychology, you learn that compromising can be twisted into enabling by master manipulators.

I have always loved math because it is so exact, 2+2 is always 4, whereas in "English" even the phonics of our alphabet is perverse. Math is fun because it is like solving puzzles or riddles, and the answer you arrive at is either correct or not, that doesn't change. As for you second statement, I am learning that principle through experience. I am married to a chronic victim whose problems are always someone else's fault and any error made is a personal attack meant to kill her chance for happiness. I want to see her happy, but obviously she doesn't, so I quit.
Can you explain?
@@aleksandar4923 master manipulatirs are good at using your own compassion againat you. They know how to play the victim so good, that our empathy and compassion get toyed with, making us think its sad and helpless for them
As a student of philosophy, I was skeptic regarding such issues which is very complicated but She used metaphoric language so I could understand something about excitement and relationship how brain works. Afterall Im proud of Her bravery.
nah, this was a bad topic. skeptic going in. you were right to be.
7:25 That woman in the middle just started biting her lip like "oh yeah now I know what I need to do!!"
or does she
I had this video on my home page for 10 years, can't believe I gave up today
Excellent speaker. Definitely has control of the auditorium.
But not of her topic.
Excellent talk. This is how someone should teach math. Very interesting. Please keep us the good work. Thank you.
The most click baity title ever!!
But quite educative tho! I'm considering using such techniques to capture the attention of students haha!
Probably the best presentation I've ever seen
The best way forward: to work together to find the superior third option
like in a 3 way?
thats the fittest mathematician i have seen
Rachel Riley.
That’s because she is Aussie:)
@@mankydave67 yeah that woman is pretty hot
Yep, she's straight out of Mass Effect's terrible looking skin tones
@@deepdiver849 She wasn't born Aussie. That physique comes from excessive aerobics.
Really interesting altho broader than expected. The msg: don't marry someone that you feel you have to compromise alot with. It's healthy to compromise but If one or both feel they don't get to do most of what they want to do it isn't likely to work out.... Great delivery!
so she started off with an interesting topic, the math of a good marriage, and then just adhd'ed around the place and im still looking for the end of the marriage equation...
I don't remember the name cause I watched it a long time ago but there is another TED w/ someone developing the equation ;)
All the mathematics you need to know.$200 high heels + $500 dress + $100 worth of make up can divide half of a man income.
Women have their own money fortunately. Problem solved
Engaging case for mathematics, which many of us artists avoid... Well-presented! 💗
Akash is a direct seller in the world 🌍🌎🌍🌍
I have no idea what she as talking about -but I watched the whole video- as I would watch her teach anything: ballet, philosophy, algebra, anatomy, whatever..
She's a great speaker imo, has clarity and good accent. Enjoyed the video throughout. 👍
Yeah only thing missing was content
Yeah, she's a great speaker!! I only wish she actually had something to say.
I agree... Content is full of bull. Lots of nothing. Nothing with concrete continous example.
This lady is stunning and even more important exactly correct I am no match wizard but I have used all of what she describes in this short video all my life. This is why the times we live in now are so exciting learning and living is. Awesome and these red videos are great
Mathematically speaking, all I remember is her trousers from the back camera. And I'm already solving my problems better.
What a phenomenal woman.
I knew a few classmates that could have used this to know math could be interesting and fun. I was lucky having a fellow female student who did not understand having ask so many questions all I did was listen. Math was my major in high school and into computer business in college.
Highly informative. Obviously keeps herself in great shape. She has the scar from a torn bicep as proof of training.
You can be just as precise and exacting with words. Everyone has their way of connecting the dots. Everyone has a structure for interpreting the experience of being alive. A framework or world view. The more accurate, detailed and cohesive your framework, the better it will serve you. I like fiddling with words like she seems to like doing math.
Insightful speaker. 'Seek beauty & you shall find it'
That was one well delivered speech
+DickHead69able wtf
Awesome talk! Thanks Dr. Cresswell!
Great start for humans to begin thinking on hormonal intelligence. It's necessary to learn to understand the changes in our bodies and to teach our children how to control hormonal ups and downs. I would ask for more but now with the insights of endocrinologists and psychologists.
Love her vibe
