Moving points reveal hidden distances and boundaries.
🧠 About
MikeTateMath.org is the home of Mike Tate’s recursive symbolic mathematics: a lattice of tools, games, papers, audio, videos, and visual proof intuition.
The guiding idea is simple: advanced math becomes easier when symbols are turned into motion, maps, cycles, and memorable systems.
Core Philosophy
- Freely shared tools over locked institutions
- Dynamic visuals over static proofs
- Recursive clarity over linear complexity
- Symbolic intelligence over abstract noise
- Elegant coherence over bloated formalism

A compact guide to the site’s central move: reduce a system, act on it, and track what remains coherent.
Reduce
Quiet the noise
n ↦ n mod 72
Place a number on a repeating wheel so its hidden cycles become visible.
Track

pattern → transform → invariant
Let the form change, then isolate the rule that remains stable through the motion.
