# Pop Culture Equations Maths by Mattcantdraw Breaks Down Characters into Simple Steps By Harris Jay Rosenberg Alterman | Published 2012-02-09 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/maths-by-mattcantdraw References: [whatanart](http://whatanart.com/2012/02/07/pop-culture-mathemetics/) & [mattcantdraw.deviantart](http://mattcantdraw.deviantart.com/) Maths by mattcantdraw is a series of pop culture equations that explains how many pop culture characters came to be. If this kind of math replaced the stuff in 3rd grade, there would be a lot more happy children in the world. Some of the pop culture equations are easy to figure out while others take a minute to understand. When you get a small boy and subtract his parents, the outcome is [Batman](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-dark-knight-collection); fire added with a green figure equals Darth Vader. Some of the larger equations include multiple characters such as the [eyeless gang headed up by Daredevil](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/arr-x-kaws-sesame-street). So if you consider yourself a pop culture wizard, see if you can figure out the entire series of Maths by mattcantdraw. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.8/10 - Popularity: 79% | Activity: 26% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 70% men, 30% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Pop Culture Equations:** An emerging trend of using mathematical equations to explain the origins of pop culture characters presents opportunities for creative storytelling and cross-disciplinary collaborations. - **Creative Math Education:** The incorporation of pop culture equations into math curriculum offers an innovative approach to engage and educate students, fostering their interest in mathematics. - **Cross-disciplinary Art:** The convergence of mathematics and pop culture in the form of art projects like Maths by mattcantdraw opens up possibilities for interdisciplinary collaborations between artists, mathematicians, and storytellers. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Education:** The application of pop culture equations in math education creates opportunities for the development of interactive and engaging learning materials and tools. - **Entertainment:** The use of pop culture equations as a storytelling device presents opportunities for content creators to merge mathematics and entertainment, resulting in unique and engaging narratives. - **Art:** The emergence of pop culture equations as an art form opens up avenues for artists to explore the intersection of mathematics, popular culture, and visual storytelling. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Interactive Digital Math Games](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/osmo-math-wizard-and-the-magical-workshop.md) - [Comic Book Hero Collectibles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/comic-book-heros.md) - [Math Puzzle Competitions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/summatch.md) - [Deconstructed Pop Art NFTs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/matt-gondek.md) - [Sci-Fi-Themed Miniature Figurines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/book-of-boba-fett-1.md) - [Value Menu Masterclasses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/deal-lovers-menu.md) - [Animated Learning Tools](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/calcplay.md) - [AI Math Problem Assistants](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ai-math.md) - [Immersive Fighting Math Games](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/karate-math-dojo.md)
