Will Smith and his son Jaden have baffled the minds of even the most mathematically astute in their latest joint interview.

The father/son duo (44 and 14) were discussing their upcoming space adventure, After Earth, when their chat turned to a confusing ‘multidimensional mathematics’ exploration.

‘I’m a student of patterns. At heart, I’m a physicist. I look at everything in my life as trying to find the single equation, the theory of everything,’ said Will during the interview with New York magazine when questioned about his rumoured involvement in Scientology.

He then tries to use his ‘pattern’ theory to reveal if he and Jaden would team up for a future big screen adventure.

‘If you were a student of the pattern, you’d have to say we were going to do another one,’ he said.

And then in an apparent snub to the rest of the world who obviously wouldn’t be able to understand the ‘pattern theory’ of which he speaks, Will said: ‘You know, the forum of media that we’re in can’t really handle the complexity of things that we say all the time.’

Perhaps sensing that mere mortals might struggle to grasp this revolutionary new way of thinking, Jaden attempted to clear things up.

‘I think that there is that special equation for everything, but I don’t think our mathematics have evolved enough for us to even – I think there’s, like, a whole new mathematics that we’d have to learn to get that equation,’ he said, with Will in agreement.

The 14-year-old then went on, saying: ‘It’s beyond mathematical. It’s, like, multidimensional mathematical, if you can sort of understand what I’m saying.’

To be honest, we were lost at ‘student of patterns.’
