Footage from my adventure will be featured soon on Naked Maths.

Dracula’s castle (aka Bran castle in Romania). Since the publication of the original story by Bram Stoker in 1897, Count Dracula has featured in over 200 films, making him the second most popular character of all time. Any ideas who the first might be? #tomrocksmaths #dracula #brancastle

I survived bear-spotting in Romania. The country is home to 60% of Europe’s brown bear population and around 3% worldwide. If there are 200,000 across the world, how many are in Europe? #tomrocksmaths #brownbear #bearwatching

Tattoo #35 - Maxwell’s Equations of Electromagnetism. Taking the curl of the first two equations, and combining with the second two equations (zero divergence conditions in a vacuum), results in both the Electric Field E and the Magnetic Field B satisfying the wave equation. This is how mathematicians showed that light is a wave. Mind-blowing. #tomrocksmaths #maxwell #electromagnetism
