They discussed literature and mathematics, why two banjos are like one slide rule, and whether we really know what pi is. Steve Martin read and enacted excerpts from his works, reminisced about his work for the Smothers Brothers, and discussed the authors who influenced him. The hilarity of this event as it spins out of control has to be seen (on this videotape) to be believed!"--container. 538 $a VHS. 600 10 $a Martin, Steve, $d 1945- $v Interviews. 650 0 $a Comedians $z United States. $v Interviews. 650 0 $a Mathematics and literature. 650 0 $a Mathematics $v Humor. 650 0 $a Mathematicians $v Interviews. 650 0 $a Pi $v Humor. 650 0 $a Wit and humor. 650 0 $a Video recordings 700 1 $a Osserman, Robert. 700 1 $a Ichinose, Audrey. 700 1 $a Martin, Steve. $d 1945- 700 1 $a Williams, Robin, $d 1952 July 21- 710 2 $a Mathematical Sciences Research Institute (Berkeley, Calif.) 710 2 $a American Mathematical Society. 710 2 $a City Arts & Lectures 939 $a 5221429 941 $a 1 945 $a vhs 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=BE3DAF102B0711DE986A0F08A8D7520A 994 $a 02 $b IOP 952 $l OMAX631 $d 20090701080000.0Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
