- Two PhD students, Laura Casabella (MPI MiS) and Dante Luber (TU Berlin), ask June Huh (Princeton University) questions about his work, winning the Fields medal and mathematics in general.
Unfortunately we had an audio equipment failure, please enable subtitles.

It's a shame that the audio quality is so bad
Unfortunately we had an equipment failure and had to fall back to in-built mics and sound reconstruction to even be able to get this out of it. Sorry about that. We've added subtitles though.
Thank you so much, and thanks for interviewing him!

I recommend reproducing the audio quality by a profesional and upload it again, cause It's a real problem
Mr. Huh, Poet turned Mathematician is one of my inspirations in today’s world!
Rather now he’s both poet and mathematician 😊
love it. im not a mathematician or anywhere in academia, a film student actually, and i love there's this poetic-ness in the way june speaks.
Not sure why I clicked on this, but I am so glad that I did. What an inspiration he is. The best part? I suspect he would not think of himself in that way. And to attribute a lot, even most, of his success to luck, very humble. Boy did I need to hear this as I am feeling stuck in the journey I am on (related to mathematics). I am renewed!
Excellent. Thank you. **For anyone concerned about the audio quality, I have found that turning on the closed captions works quite well.
The audio quality is painfully bad.
Thanks.
Well played Hans Kim!
It seems like everyone is wearing mics. Did the mics fail, or is using the room sound an error on the video production side? Edit: I'm about halfway in, and even at maximum volume on my laptop it's difficult to make out some of what is being said. If there is any way the audio can be fixed (or even improved) and the video re-uploaded, we would all be greatly appreciative!

Everyone talking about the audio 🙄🤦🏻♀️
👍👍
Is it the month of May?
June.
Huh?
nice sound quality! lmao

such uninspiring questions... and yet he still managed to give interesting answers to many of them
This guy's need desperately a couple of good mics!
When I'm met with a math problem that I don't know how to solve, I just go "Huh?"
Wow the sound is awful!
Bad audio quality
