As someone who has always loved music/art and math, this is something I can certainly appreciate. I honestly feel like this is something I would do.
I like Pi. 3.14159265358979323. I'm ashamed to say that that's all I've memorized. I totally could memorize more and I'm sure I will, but unfortunately I was never in a Pi memorizing competition. I would've won. My brother had one, and they would give all the kids a printed out sheet of paper with 100 digits of pi, and whoever memorized the most by the end of the day would win pi or something like that.
I like that it was acknowledged around campus, I had some pie myself. But I certainly feel like CMU could have done a pi day event or something like that, especially since yesterday was a Friday. It would've been the perfect day. Anyways, beautiful piano piece. I really am glad they included a recording.
