Registration is now open for the MATRIX × IMAGINARY Online Gathering that will take place on September 8 - 9, 2021
Join us to discover the future of mathematics engagement. Innovations in math museums, exhibitions, new formats, technologies, and inspiring ideas!
Some program highlights:
Keynotes by Steven Strogatz, Ingrid Daubechies, and other speakers to be confirmed.
The Online Gathering is a precursor to a physical conference that will take place in Paris in April 2022. Learn more on the official MATRIX × IMAGINARY website.
Do you have ideas to share related to math outreach, including museums, exhibitions, technologies, or other innovative thoughts?
Can you encapsulate your ideas in an inspiring, engaging four‑minute presentation? If so, we want to hear from you!
Submit your proposal for a four-minute talk sharing either a current project or an idea in progress to matrixximaginary@ihp.fr before August 15, 2021.
The proposal has to include: your name and affiliation, a short bio (2-3 lines), a profile picture, a short description of your project or idea (half a page maximum), and optionally links to the project page or a video.

IMAGINARY has launched a new educational and artistic format called “MathLapse” to highlight the link between mathematics and real-world phenomena. The name MathLapse (ML) is inspired by the timelapse-technique in physics: By re-scaling time, phenomena are visualized which we cannot observe directly.
A ML is short, simple, self-contained, creative and...Lire la suite
