Have you seen Light Grooves, MoMath's holographic metalwork, or the picture-forming lenses in MoMath's Composite gallery?  Did you know that both are demonstrations of entirely new technologies?  Join us for a conversation with artist and serial inventor Matt Brand on the mathematical and technical challenges of doing art with optics — and doing freeform optics with automotive tools.  Brand will give a short presentation to kick off the event and just might take the opportunity to reprogram your visual system.
