MoMath April – May 2025 Upcoming Events
Dear MoMath Friends,
As the beauty of spring fills the air, ponder this: Can beauty be defined mathematically? Join us this season for an exciting lineup of events that explore the fascinating intersection of math, art, and discovery. Hear from Mina Teicher, Israel’s former chief scientist, as she leads us on a mathematical journey into the nature of beauty. Or join visiting professor and mathematical artist David Reimann for an eight-week minicourse exposing the fascinating connections between mathematical ideas and artistic expression. Looking for hands-on mathematical fun? Meet renowned game designer Imre Kökényesi and step into the world of Rubik’s Gridlock, where a puzzle box becomes a stunning art structure and a playground for the mind. Adults, don’t miss The Aftermath, a free evening where math comes alive and is accompanied by music, drinks, and dancing. And let’s not forget the younger generation: Minicamps and summer camps are now open for registration; high-energy, playful Kahoot competitions offer fun for the entire family; and yes, kids can do calculus, when guided by MoMath fan favorite Alex Kontorovich. Join us throughout the spring at MoMath, the coolest thing that ever happened to math!
