Like the breath of a sparkler, the brilliant young mathematician Ramanujan ignited the world of numbers, sharing profound solutions, only to be extinguished prematurely at the age of 32. It was this story that compelled my friend Ray to dedicate himself to a talent search to find the next hidden genius. And at his recommendation, I watched The Man Who Knew Infinity earlier this year, a biopic on this genius. I swept through every emotion, from awe to sorrow, due to his life’s tribulations and triumphs.
I look forward to read more of this writing. Thanks for unpacking this concept!
