Slides and Videos
Notes
Most lectures were recorded during 2021 class (taught by Dr. Eulalia Hernández), therefore you may hear references to chat, times, etc. (please report to the lecturer if certain places are too annoying and should better be cut out)
The website and some of the linked files may have changed slightly since some videos were recorded, but the content is essentially the same
Sorry if YouTube shows ads before the videos -- it's YouTube monetizing, not me. (AdBlockers on laptop and NewPipe on Android may help.)
