Here’s a greeting from our chair Hyungju Park who was also a chair for ICM 2014. 

“It is so exciting to invite you to this NIMS IMAGINARY Exhibition!

21st century mathematics is not only at the frontier of human understanding of the universe, but also changing the landscape of technology leading to unforeseen industrial development. Mathematics popularization raises awareness of such expanding roles of mathematics in 21st century.

In this era of rapid scientific development and discoveries, it is becoming ever more important for scientific researchers to interact with the general public. IMAGINARY is one such attempt bridging mathematics and the public.

By joining the IMAGINARY team, you will touch and see mathematics!”

Hyungju Park
