Music video of stochasticity for Radiolab science podcast

Higher Mammals made a song and video to accompany Radiolab's recent show about stochasticity. If you don't already know about Radiolab, it's a terrific science podcast produced for WYNC public radio.

Radiolab Stochasticity Bonus Video!

Radiolab is fantastic. The one NPR show I really stick to, beyond news and a few others.

Ah, but this was a perfect opportunity to use stochastic methods to compose the song (at least in part)... :(

I was about to show this great video to the stochastically-inclined folks in my department, until the flying word "improbabAlistically" showed up. What a shame. How can someone produce a great video and miss something as rudimentary as the spelling of "probability"? Has anyone ever seen "probabality" written anywhere?

Funny, I was just digging some stochasticity recently

Radiolab is an NPR show which is also released online. It is not a podcast.

@6: They also supplement the online radio show recordings with podcast- (or at least net-) exclusive content that isn't on the radio.
