Name: In Our Time: imaginary numbers by MarcusduSautoy
Duration: 42 min 10 s
Description: In this episode of In Our Time Marcus and Melvyn grapple with the concept of imaginary numbers. Perplexing digits that underpin the majority of technology we take for granted today, from radios to computers to MRI scans; not to mention quantum mechanics. This episode inspired a cartoon in the New Yorker that week entitled "not-particularly-easy-listening radio". Good luck.
