 Here are some resources for designing highly interactive math lessons around binary numbers and other



number bases:

Mike Naylor's Hero Run poem (and several other very cool mathematically-structured poems!)


A film from this class a few years ago: 

New math teachers riff on Kandinsky in Binary

...which refers to Marc and Marion Chamberland's 2016 artwork, Kandinsky in Binary -- a beautiful and unique way of representing numbers in different bases with concentric circles.

And a more recent film from Malmö University in Sweden, The Binary Balcony!
