In this video, I discuss how one might count to twenty using gestures (accompanied by hand-drawn hand drawings), with snippets elsewhere of other things.
Videos that explain number bases better than me:

Interesting numerical systems:
- "History of Number, Evidence from Papua New Guinea and Oceania" by Kay Owens and Glen Lean with Patricia Paraide and Charly Muke
- Oksapmin language (body-counting system that goes up to 27)
- Aztec and Mayan (for base-20; this is a part of the Mesoamerican Sprachbund)
