Building Beauty: The Harmonograph Art of Ivan Moscovich in Composite, the gallery at MoMath (in-person)
The National Museum of Mathematics is delighted to feature the mathematical artwork of Ivan Moscovich. This solo show will include almost three dozen original pieces of Ivan’s art, created using his custom-made (and patented) harmonograph, and will explore the aesthetics and mathematics of Lissajous curves. Ivan used the harmonograph, an analog drawing machine that uses pens and pendulums, to generate an incredible variety of elegantly swirling, multi-colored graphic configurations known as Lissajous patterns. First exhibited at the Institute of Contemporary Arts in London in 1968, the work it produced was acclaimed as the best math art of the time. Since then, Ivan’s creations have been shown in major exhibitions in locations including Berlin, Basel, Mexico City, Tel Aviv, and San Francisco, with a renewed interest in his work in the last few years. The show will include two working harmonographs for visitors to explore how the artwork is created and make their own works to take home. Learn more at composite.momath.org.

Senior Sessions: “Vote Counts: Tower of Power” (online)
Tuesday, November 2 at 2:00 pm ET (New York)
Explore the ways power can be distributed in weighted voting systems. These systems — such as county delegations, government committees, and even the United States Electoral College — are those in which different groups have different amounts of votes. Should the largest populations have the most power? Should smaller groups have a voice? Answering these questions is far more complex than deferring to majority rule, but modern mathematical analysis provides a useful lens through which to analyze unbalanced voting power. (Please note: This is the third installment of the Vote Counts series; it is not necessary to have attended the other two.) Learn more and register at seniorsessions.momath.org.

Tween Primes, the MoMath book club for tweens and teens: Hannah, Divided by Adele Griffin (online)
Sunday, November 7 at 5:30 pm ET (New York)
Uncommonly smart, uncommonly strange, Hannah Bennett is determined to become a success. In the one-room schoolhouse at Chadds Ford, Hannah is a sensation. She is a whiz at math — so adept that she teaches the other students — but in reading, she is a flop. Give her a piece of poetry and she can tell you how many As, how many Es, and how many Rs there are in it — but she cannot read a word. Her talent is amazing, but in this small town during the Great Depression, people think that girls can only use math for household budgeting. All at once, everything changes for Hannah when she is invited to study math in the big city of Philadelphia. This illiterate farm girl will undertake the adventure of a lifetime in hopes of winning a university scholarship. As long as she stays true to herself, nothing — not reading, writing, or Philadelphia — is beyond Hannah’s reach. Learn more and register at tweenprimes.momath.org.

Tween Primes, the MoMath book club for tweens and teens: Starman Jones by Robert A. Heinlein (online)
Sunday, December 12 at 5:30 pm ET (New York)
The stars were closed to Max Jones. To get into space you either needed connections, a membership in the arcane Guild, or a whole lot more money than Max, the son of a widowed, poor mother, was ever going to have. What Max does have going for him are his uncle’s prized astrogation manuals — books on star navigation that Max literally commits to memory word for word, equation for equation. When Max’s mother decides to remarry a bullying oaf, Max takes to the road, only to discover that his Uncle Chet’s manuals, and Max’s near complete memorization of them, is a ticket to the stars. But serving on a spaceship is no easy task. Duty is everything, and a mistake can mean you and all aboard are lost forever. Max loves every minute of his new life, and he steadily grows in the trust of his superior officers, and seems to be on course for a command track position. But then disaster strikes, and it’s going to take every trick Max ever learned from his tough life and his uncle’s manuals to save himself and the ship from a doom beyond extinction itself.
