ERDŐS 100 PLUS Ten videos by 
Concentrating on the legacy of Paul Erdős in mathematics, Erdős 100 Plus is a DVD compilation of ten videos totaling 180 minutes. The anchor piece is Erdős 100, a 30-minute video prepared for the centennial celebration in 2013 of Paul Erdős's birth. It contains new interviews mixed with never-before-seen outtakes from N is a Number: A Portrait of Paul Erdős. Four of the videos on the DVD feature scenes from the raw interviews conducted with Erdős between 1988 and 1991 for N is a Number. The 112 minutes of largely unedited Erdős interviews appear in four sequences compiled according to the dates and cities where the interviews were filmed. Although most of the material is in English, the four videos are subtitled. The DVD includes Something New Every Day, a 21-minute film completed in 2015 on the occasion of Ron Graham's 80th birthday. Four short pieces about the development of combinatorics, and the probabilistic method are also included. One of these, Large Gaps Between Primes, concerns the distribution of prize money offered by Erdős for the solution of a problem, and features James Maynard, one of several people to solve the problem.

Something New Every DayThe Math & Magic of Ron GrahamA film by George Csicsery This 21-minute film was prepared for Ron Graham's 80th birthday. It celebrates Graham's remarkable career as a mathematician and magician, as well as his important leadership roles in many of the institutions that support the pursuit of mathematics throughout the world. The film contains outtakes from the film N is a Number: A Portrait of Paul Erdős that were shot between 1988 and 1991, scenes from a day of filming at Graham's December 1999 retirement event at Bell Labs, and interviews filmed for Erdős 100, a 30-minute film that was screened at Paul Erdős's 100th birthday celebration in Budapest in 2013. In addition there are dozens of stills provided by Ron Graham, and by the filmmaker, George Csicsery. The film premiered on June 15, 2015 at Connections in Discrete Mathematics: A Celebration of the Work of Ron Graham, held June 15-19, 2015 in Vancouver, Canada. Something New Every Day: The Math & Magic of Ron Graham was made possible with generous support from the Elwyn & Jennifer Berlekamp Foundation.
