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.

SURFER is presented as part of a big IMAGINARY installation in Tecnópolis, Buenos Aires Argentina. For the first time a half dome with 7.5 meters diameter has been constructed to host 3 SURFER touch screen panels and a gallery of algebraic surfaces. The dome features coordinate axes and is the eyecatcher of the “Pabellón de Matemática” of Tecnópolis 2012.Devamını oku
At the Oberwolfach IMAGINARY workshop in July 2012 it was decided to put a focus on web development. For the program SURFER it is planned to offer a web version, i. e. a Java ray tracer of algebraic surfaces in form of a browser applet. This applet can the be easily controlled in the browser html environment through javascript commands. The user interface can...Devamını oku
