S02:E01 - 1-2-3 Dimensions
Have you ever wanted to take a vacation in the first or second dimension? Hamza discovers the world of height, width and depth in this multi-dimensional episode of Look Kool! Find out how 3D movies trick your brain, have your mind blown by the mysterious Perspective Phantom, watch our challengers build a robot, and meet the creator of Koolkatt!
S02:E02 - Origami
Hamza is packing up for a nice beach vacation, but he can’t fit all of his stuff in his suitcase! Origami to the rescue - he takes a nod from the 400 year-old art of Japanese paper folding to make things with a lot of surface area take up less space! Origami can be used for all kinds of interesting things, from building a telescope, to teeny-tiny tubes used in heart surgery, to finding out how to make the best paper airplane.
S02:E03 - Frame-Shell-Solid
What is a structure and how do you make it sturdy? Hamza wants a new bookcase to replace his rickety old one. He enlists the help of an apathetic beaver to build it, and learns that there are three forms that make the basis of all structures, frames, shells, and solids! Each has unique properties that make it suited for different purposes – but you might be surprised by the results…who knew you could make a real canoe out of concrete?
S02:E04 - Probability
What are the odds? Hamza can’t figure out why Koolkatt always wins when they play Flip-the-coin. Can you really use probability to predict the future? Hamza will interview a real-life playing card, meet a flying pig, pop a LOT of popcorn, and find out what’s so ‘lucky’ about the number seven!
S02:E05 - Programming
Uh oh, Koolkatt is on the fritz! When Hamza can’t get his beloved robot cat to behave, he discovers that his pet is made of all kinds of cool parts, including a computer! To fix Koolkatt, Hamza must learn how to speak to computers. But how?
S02:E06 - What's Your Angle?
Today we're getting the angle on angles! Hamza is really excited about his birthday present for Koolkatt – but all of the right angles in his brand-new Kitty Kastle are, well, wrong! It turns out that angles are really important for all kinds of things, like building strong structures, playing sports, measuring long distances, and even playing pool!
S02:E07 - Power of 10
Hamza wonders how people do math with numbers SO BIG they take 95 years just to say out loud. And how do you measure something too small to even see? To find out, He’ll meet an Olympian superhero, our challengers will throw a lot of Frisbees, and the investigators will make their own solar system!
S02:E08 - Make That a Double
Two, four, six, eight - how can you make numbers great? In This episode, Hamza learns just how quickly doubling can make numbers grow from tiny to astronomical! Along the way the investigators will get tangled in Chinese noodles, the challengers will get covered in slime eggs, and Hamza will interview a zombie!
S02:E09 - Measurement
Hamza wants to measure everything about Koolkatt that has changed since he was a teeny-weeny little robot-kitten - but how? It turns out there are a lot of different ways to measure the world around us. To find out more, we'll meet a Viking ship builder, walk the plank in clown shoes, and make our own gooey worms!
S02:E10 - Zero
Do you ever like to just think about nothing? Hamza does – he’s been thinking about the number zero! For a number with absolutely nothing to it, it’s awfully important. You can make number lines, Cartesian planes…you can even make other numbers magically disappear. There's nothing better than nothing!
S02:E11 - Math in Music
How come some sound combinations are pleasant and others sound like a cat with a screw loose? To find out, we'll make guitars out of shoeboxes, cut up a pizza, give Koolkatt a tune-up, and meet the original Otto Tune. Drum roll, please! It's going to be music to your ears...
S02:E12 - Nature's Mysterious Patterns
Have you ever wondered what video game graphics have in common with broccoli? Fractals, of course! Hamza learns that we can understand the shapes and patterns of nature using math! We'll see what happens when fame goes to the "head" of a broccoli, our Challengers will try and make sense of a jumble of Ys, and we'll see how nature's hidden geometry has transformed art and special effects in movies!
