I can't find it now but I recently read of one or two guys who systematically tabulated juggling tricks. Gaps in the table led to new tricks which astonished experienced jugglers -- the way gaps in the periodic table led Mendeleev to predict properties of undiscovered elements. One guy gives talks on juggling at math conferences and on math at juggling conferences.
