I think this is also a reference to the movie "The Matrix", specifically the now famous scene where Neo does 90degree back bending to dodge bullets.

Maybe another reference:
 
They'll go home (translation matrix) and shrink (scale matrix). Translation, scale and rotate are probably the most popular linear transformations.

I've been teach that the rotation was anticlockwise. Do computer turn the other way round that math teachers?
 
by the way (left (  matrix{0 # 1 ## -1 # 0} right )*left ( binom 1 0 right)=left (binom 0 1 right) if you know what i mean.
 
get fun.

On clockwise/counterclockwise: I think Randall is using screen coordinates (where the top left is (0,0) and the point (1,4) is one below (1,3)), instead of standard Cartesian coordinates where the bottom left is (0,0) and going from (1,3) to (1,4) means going upwards.
