An equally valuable form of support is to simply share some of the videos.
Special thanks to these supporters:
My work on this topic at Khan Academy:
Timestamps
0:00 - Vector fields
2:15 - What is divergence
4:31 - What is curl
5:47 - Maxwell’s equations
7:36 - Dynamic systems
10:37 - Explaining the notation
13:28 - No more sponsor messages
Correction at 4:55, the narration should say “counterclockwise rotation gives positive curl, clockwise rotation gives negative curl“. The diagram is correct, though.
For more fun fluid-flow illustrations, which heavily influenced how I animated this video, I think you’ll really enjoy this site:
