Finding Pi

Prompts = Circumference, Share, Store

Stuart couldn’t sit still in a classroom setting. Which is why, when learning about the ratio pi (the circumference of a circle divided by its diameter), he decided to calculate it himself. If some ancient guys could get it to 3.14 using ancient tools, he could do at least as well.

It’s why, when he shared his story with his local community, all the hardware stores donated supplies to form and measure the biggest circle they could.

Stuart didn’t care they ended up in the Guinness Book of World Records. He was happy to accurately calculate pi to six digits.

Prompts = Tunnel, Share, Chime

‘Are we ready to start? As previously discussed, no lights please; we don’t want to disturb the rest of the colony. Sorry — what’s that? You can’t see? Haven’t developed your tunnel vision yet, have you?’

‘We’re taping? Ok. Hi and welcome to Mole Rat Colony 33. My name is Barry and I want to share with you, courtesy of this BBC documentary film crew, what life is like here. And we’re also live-streaming, so just chime in with questions — I’m happy to answer them.

‘Do we get good reception? Yes — we’ve been wired for years. Let me show you…’
