Hello World! 🪩 . Welcome to Spinfinity - where we spin things and explore infinite possibilities! 🌀 . Spinfinity is spun by me, Aditi @adt.bot . I’ve been hooping since I was 6 years old, poi-ing for 3 years, exploring dapo and fans for roughly a year. So naturally, flow arts has been an integral (math pun intended) part of my life! Speaking of math, I’ve had a love-hate relationship with it from loving and acing it in school (I scored 100 in ISC Math :P) to hating and failing engineering math. And then suddenly during my Master’s degree in Design in 2022, I started seeing math in flow arts! At that time it was just an abstract idea like a lot of math, but over the past two years I’ve spent time researching, building it with girls who hate math and a lot of other exciting stuff! 🧬 . Another main idea is to challenge what’s considered intelligent and beautiful. Art can be analytical and math can be aesthetic, for starters. Technicalities are beautiful and flow is intelligent. And also to challenge boundaries that we set for ourselves, that “Oh, I can’t do this cause I’m not a math person” or “I’m not a creative person at all!”. My aim is for us to open the boxes that we put ourselves, our thoughts and our bodies in. 🦋 . And this page is to share this beautiful journey with you. I’ll post about the small and big connections I see between math and flow, some literal some philosophical. About cool books I read on these topics. About cool people that have sparked some ideas. And stories from my engagements with kids, schools, organizations where I facilitate these learnings! 🤸🏾 . I’m so excited. I invite you to think with me, flow with me, call me out, appreciate and extrapolate to your own lives. Let’s spin into infinite poi-ssibilities! ♾️ . Hoops from @hoop.flo ⭕ Dapos from @flowchakra 🌀 Poi from @tushalpoiet ♾️ Fans made by me with a tutorial by @jessy.spin 🪭 . #Spinfinity #HoopsDontLie #embodiedmovement #embodiedlearning #firstpost #infinity #popscience #mixedmediaanimation #techflow #flowarts #flowartists #mathtrauma #mathskills #flowstagramm #hulahoops #poispinner #dapostar #firefans #flowartseveryday #embodiedcognition #educationaltoys

I put a spin on DataViz at @vizchitra 2025 last week! Without VizChitra, these ideas would have just lived in my subconscious for years. I’m so grateful. It was surreal to present to folks that I’ve looked up to in this field for years, and receive their feedback! I found @norabateson ’s Harvest poem during the process. It made me realize that each idea’s time will come — ‘Ecology is not instant, you cannot run to the shop and buy it.’ — and such was the case for this talk too. The seed took root over the years, @chartwaali watered it in her office hours. I grew it into a shoot that was submitted as a proposal. The VizChitra team saw something in it, and my lovely reviewers Nithya Subramanian and Richie Lionell helped it bloom! Nithya helped me own the stage; Richie validated its place in the world. I began the talk by asking: what happens when data moves? Can it move you back? I guess I got my answer, because folks cried! :’) Hans Zimmer surely contributed, but seeing these visceral reactions brought it full circle. I’d like to end with Nora Bateson’s lines: There is no summation, nothing to put in your pocket, only idea seeds in warmth and moist history. Relax. The possibilities are brewing, stewing. Let them wander and shape in ways you may never have considered. #VizChitra2025 #Movementismeditation #Flowartists #DataViz #DataStorytelling #Hoopersofinsta #flowartscommunity #hoopsdontlie #embodiedlearning #Datafam #WarmData

300 kids, endless spins, and a whole lot of PLAY and FLOW! 🌈✨ The Ramagondanahalli Readathon turned into a carnival of hula hoops, dapostars, and poi, with happiness through the roof. . Huge shoutout to the amazing student volunteer team who kept the magic alive (and bravely rescued props from trees)! 🛠🙌 They weren't afraid to branch out! . This day wasn’t just about learning flow arts—it was about building confidence, sparking curiosity, and creating pure joy through flow arts. 🎉💃 . It was a dream come true for me to see kids enjoy flowing like this! Can’t wait to spin something like this again. 💫 Shoutout to @the_circle_india 's innovation grant which made this possible!

Happy Pi Day, folks! 🥧 Here are three hoop moves where you spin pi! Have you ever thought of it that way? 🌀 . Isolations + folds: isolations trace the circumference (2πr), and when you fold, you're revealing the diameter passing through it . Chest rolls: one point on the hoop travels across your body tracing a shape called a cycloid, covering a distance of 2πr . Waist hooping: you're literally spinning the circumference (2πr) around your waist no matter the hoop size, circumference / diameter = π, always ♾️ . Read more on spinfinity.substack.com!

Day 89/100: Hilbert Curve Jewellery set! I used the hilbert curve Hooping design from Day 82 to design a locket. And the earrings are a vibe too :D . . Made with @p5xjs and @tinkercad ! . Can you think of any other way I can bring the Hilbert curve to life? Let me know! So far I've done a laser cut puzzle, cat generator and an nfc tag! . . . .

Day 88- Star Puff Origami Tessellation! :D . From @eric.gjerde 's Origami Tessellations book, with support from @jonakashima 's spread hex tutorial! Making the triangle twists is as satisfying as popping bubble wrap. And the back of this is as fascinating as the front side :') . #origamitessellation #origami #tessellation #foldingfriday #MathArt .
