Opt Art, a book discussion with
mathematician and author Robert Bosch

How does a powerful modeling tool for discovering the best solution to a problem also provide a surprisingly rich medium for creating breathtaking works of art?  Join Robert Bosch in a discussion of his new book, which takes readers on an entertaining tour of linear optimization and how it can be used, including to design compelling visual art.  Bosch, a professor of mathematics at Oberlin College and an award-winning writer and artist, shares how he combines mathematics and computing to create beauty and express emotion through works of art including mosaics, line drawings, and even sculpture.
