Data is crucial in today’s mathematics research. From experimental data obtained in laboratories or in the field to results of simulation; from formulas scattered across the literature to catalogs of classified mathematical objects. Ensuring that all this data is used and reused efficiently across disciplines is a major challenge in current research.
MaRDI is a German-wide initiative to address those challenges in the mathematical reseach.
IMAGINARY cooperates with several Goethe-Institutes worldwide. Many workshops will take place at the Pasch schools (with German language courses) all over the world.

(Für Deutsch hier klicken: https://imaginary.org/de/project/math-creations) We are calling on students of the art and design fields as well as independent artists and designers to participate in the Math Creations contest for art, design and mathematics. The goal of the contest is new creative ideas based on mathematical concepts and their realization. It is organized by the collaborative research centers “Discretization in Geometry and Dynamics” and “Space - Time - Matter. Analytic and Geometric Structures” in collaboration with IMAGINARY.
The International Day of Mathematics (IDM) is a worldwide celebration of mathematics, held each year on March 14, see idm314.org. It is coordinated by the International Mathematical Union and has been proclaimed by UNESCO. For the IDM 2021 and its theme “Mathematics for a Better World” we joined hands with partner organizations in 3 African countries to plan and organize a series of ONLINE EVENTS with panel discussions, talks, interactive workshops, classroom activities, competitions, teacher trainings, etc.
Pop Math’s goal is to gather all the POPular events on MATHematics in Europe (and beyond) on a single map. Everybody is invited to add events or to use Pop Math as a reference for ongoing mathematics outreach activities!
This is a networking project for professionals of Math Communication. The objective is to support the community of math communicators, and to stimulate the exchange of experiences and ideas between members of this network.
MathsWorldUK and IMAGINARY are working together to build a network for mathematics museums worldwide. Its goal is to connect mathematics museums, to strengthen collaborations between them and to implement joint projects. As a first action together, a new call for exhibits is open, on the current hot topic of pandemics and viruses. Funding is available for the creation of the exhibit.
We are creating a new exhibition, which aims to bring understanding about Artificial Intelligence to the general public.
IMAGINARY is exploring a new format for science communication we call Mobile Museum: a self contained, free standing, portable, physical station that offers the experience of a science museum exhibition in less than one square meter and in a brief amount of time. It can use all the forms of communication of a traditional exhibition (text, image, video, sound, physical objects), and various forms of interaction and participation (interactive software and input hardware). The project started in 2020 and will be a two years project, it will be accompanied by an external evaluation study. The project is supported by the Klaus Tschira Stiftung (KTS).
Hilbert is an open source infrastructure to deploy, start, stop, exchange and monitor digital interactives in museums, exhibition centers, public venues or data centers. It has been developed by IMAGINARY in collaborating with the Heidelberg Institute of Theoretical Studies (HITS) from 2015 - 2019.
With Hilbert you can more easily show digital interactives in your science museum or for your exhibition!
Thanks to our worldwide community and great content, IMAGINARY is more popular than ever! To help IMAGINARY grow and meet the increasing demand, we have decided to found our own non-profit organisation, supported by the Leibniz Association.
After the success of two public exhibitions in Kao-hsiung (Dec. 2015~ Feb. 2016) and Taipei (Mar. 2016~ May 2016), the IMAGINARY— Infinity and Beyond, held by TMS (the Mathematical Society of Taiwan), looked for local schools outside these two cities for small-scaled exhibitions so that more people can enjoy these wonderful mathematical arts during the period between June, 2016 and May 2017. So far, thirteen schools joined this project.
The project “IMAGINARY Turkey” is part of the German-Turkish Year of Science and is supported by the German Federal Ministry of Science and Education (BMBF). Its idea is to strengthen scientific ties between the two countries through jointly organizing mathematics exhibition and through networking in the field of mathematics communication.
The project aims to enhance the scientific exchange and dissemination of current mathematical research between Germany and Israel.
The IMAGINARY exhibition is showing in various cities in The Netherlands throughout September 2016 – June 2017. Admission is free!
Date limite : 16 juillet 2017

TROP ICSU (Transdiciplinary Research-Oriented Pedagogy for Improving Climate Studies and Understanding) is a global project funded by the International Council of Science to improve awareness of climate change and the science behind it on high school and undergraduate levels of education. The project develops detailed educational resources availables to teachers, that bring climate-related examples and case studies to the core curriculum, and enhance conceptual understanding of the topics in basic science, mathematics and other disciplines.
The goal is not to introduce Climate Education as a stand-alone topic, but to integrate it with the core curriculum of Science, Mathematics, and Social Sciences.
The STEM and Arts (STEAM) Hub (MINT&ART) project is an initiative under the “SMEs for Innovation“ pillar of the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF). It aims to provide small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), with outreach activities in STEAM fields, with better prerequisites for developing their own innovation activities as well as new business models. A central element is a two-day ‘Innovation Forum’, an initial stimulus for forming networks that extend the partner structure or forming permanent close cooperations with other networks.
The Mathematics Translations in Europe (MaTiE) project is a collaborative project of popular mathematics communicators within Europe, with the aim to disseminate print and online media on popular mathematics within Europe, with a particular focus on availability of translations in as many European languages possible.

L’idée de Mathcraft est de créer des sculptures papier de surfaces algébriques qui peuvent être recréées à la maison. Le chemin de l’équation à la surface, au maillage 2D et à la sculpture-surface est décrit ici, et une série de maillages standards et non-standards sont créés pour être échangés dans la communauté.
La section française d’Imaginary est lancée! Tout au long de l’année 2015 il y aura des événements, des expos, la page sera entièrement traduite…
A bundle of opensource software for “playing music” on algebraic surfaces (AS).
It is a generative music method based on trajectories traced over AS.
The goal of the project is the interactive exploration of different musical and aural posibilities of the AS.
jsurf est le cœur du programme SURFER et de bien d’autres projets pour la visualisation de surfaces algébriques réelles. SURFER est capable de produire des images d’une simple surface algébrique de manière relativement rapide et robuste. Ce projet a pour but d’étendre les potentialités de jsurf pour le rendu de plusieurs surfaces implicites avec transparences.
SURFER est un programme de visualisation de surfaces algébriques réelles. L’interface utilisateur est en premier lieu conçue pour les expositions. Elle n’offre pas d’options avancées pour utilisateurs professionnels. De plus, son implémentation est basée sur la technologie JavaFX 1.3 qui a été abandonnée par Oracle en 2010. Afin de continuer le développement de ce fabuleux programme, l’interface utilisateur nécessite d’être réécrite en utilisant une technologie (User Interface Toolkit) différente.
