“Although there is nothing in our idealized setup that requires two hands, or even “hands” at all, we note that in the usual two-handed juggling…
The representation of transitions between asynchronous and synchronous juggling patterns using siteswap notation often leads to some confusion. The confusion is primarily caused by trying…
As discussed in Siteswap Notation IV, at a given beat, H hands could be throwing N objects simultaneously. We said that a synchronous throw occurs…
In Siteswap Notation III, I wrote about siteswap sequences where more than one object could be thrown at one beat and called them “flavoured siteswaps”.…
Colonel: “Just what … kind of a name is Popinjay anyway?”“It’s Popinjay’s name, sir,” Lieutenant Scheisskopf explained. ~ Catch 22, by Joseph Heller. The etymology of…
In my previous post, we learnt how to identify, create and manipulate valid vanilla siteswap sequences purely as mathematical constructs. In this post, we will…
This first part of a series (that I have grand plans of writing) on the siteswap notation, is intended to serve as an introduction to…
I think all jugglers will agree that the “4 2 3” is one of the simplest 3-ball juggling patterns. For many, it is the second…
