Descripción

Description: 

In each round of the game you will see some polytopes on the top half of the window.

You can rotate them to look at them from all sides.

In the bottom half you will see the same number of planar nets.
These are unfoldings of polytopes into the plane.
The goal is to match the nets to the polytopes.
You can switch any pair of nets by moving one over the other.

MatchTheNet is available in English, French, and German, it features 7 levels of difficulties for a number of 2 up to 5 polytopes. The program is well suited for temporary or permanent installations in exhibitions and science museums.

MatchTheNet is based on polymake, which is open source software for research in polyhedral geometry.  It deals with polytopes, polyhedra and fans as well as simplicial complexes, matroids, graphs, tropical cycles, and more.

conform!

How can you make good flat maps of the round earth?’ Our story begins with Mercator’s world map of 1569, the first angle-preserving (or ‘conformal’) world map. His idea fell on fruitful soil, from which a new branch of mathematics has developed. The movie shows some of the highlights of this development, yielding a series of elegant visual forms which arise as ‘conformal maps’ on a variety of surfaces in 2- and 3-D. Featuring non-technical language, a simple aesthetic, compelling animation, and an original score, the movie builds an accessible bridge from everyday experience to a beautiful but little-known mathematical theory that continues to bear technological fruit today in fields such as computer graphics and architecture.

More information on the film can be found at conformmovie.de.

If you would like to show the film in a larger space and need a higher resolution copy (1080p) of the video, please contact Charles Gunn here. Also if you would like to show the film in German, French, Italian, or Russian.

About

IMAGINARY es una plataforma dedicada a la matemática abierta e interactiva. Contiene una variedad de contenido que puede ser usado en escuelas, hogares, museos, exposiciones, o en eventos y actividades de prensa. El contenido principal de IMAGINARY consiste en programas interactivos y galerías de imágenes.

La plataforma permite integrar fácilmente nuevos contenidos, por ejemplo temas adicionales sobre matemáticas, o exposiciones. Uno de los principales objetivos de IMAGINARY es permitirles a ustedes, a la comunidad, participar e involucrarse con sus ideas. La idea principal es que los módulos se crean dentro de la comunidad, y las exposiciones se organizan de forma independiente.

Este concepto y la plataforma se desarrollaron a partir de la exposición IMAGINARY original, que comenzó en el año 2008 y desde entonces ha recorrido más de 80 ciudades en todo el mundo. Este éxito enorme y el crecimiento de la comunidad fueron los que llevaron a la creación de la plataforma.

IMAGINARY es un proyecto del Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach (Director: Prof. Dr. Gerhard Huisken). La plataforma es financiada por Klaus Tschira Stiftung (2011–2013). La Real Sociedad Matemática Española realiza la edición del portal en español.

Panel at 8th Forum Wissenschaftskommunikation

The discussion panel will be on Tuesday Dec 1, from 5pm - 6:30pm.

Abstract of the panel (in German):

Interdisziplinäre und partizipative Formate stellen einen wachsenden Trend in der Wissenschaft, Kunst und Kommunikation dar und vereinen Kreative unterschiedlicher Fachrichtungen: wissenschaftliche Konferenzen werden zu partizipativen Festivals von ForscherInnen und KünstlerInnen, Ausstellungen werden von WissenschaftlerInnen und dem Publikum gemeinsam entworfen und eigenständig organisiert und neue Museen zeigen nicht nur Kunst & Wissenschaft, sondern erforschen selbst experimentelle Museums-Technologien für andere Museen. 

Die junge Szene boomt, ist international ausgerichtet und bringt viele neue Initiativen und Akteure hervor – innerhalb und außerhalb der Wissenschaftsinstitutionen. Ist das eine Chance für die Wissenschaftskommunikation, um neue Zielgruppen zu erschliessen? Wie ist mit den neuen Initiativen und Formaten umzugehen? Wie können diese von Wissenschaftseinrichtungen genutzt werden, um einen Mehrwert für die Vermittlung von Wissenschaft zu schaffen? Diese Session gibt beispielhaft Einblick in nationale und internationale Projekte und Entwicklungen und diskutiert die Möglichkeiten im Rahmen der Wissenschaftskommunikation von Forschungseinrichtungen und Universitäten.

La La Lab – the Mathematics of Music at MAINS in Heidelberg

Conceived in collaboration with experts in current research of music and mathematics, La La Lab mixes a laboratory format with interactive exhibits to present you with the stunning connections between mathematics and music pushing the boundaries of musical creativity and mathematical knowledge. It features more than a dozen interactive exhibits with newly developed software, images, 3d prints, hands-on installations, projections and a special reading and listening area. The exhibition is also part of the German Science Year of Artificial Intelligence 2019 presenting several exhibits on AI and music.

 The exhibition pivots over three axis (mixed inside the Lab):

  • Music theory.
    Learning what tools build music, and how these tools are used to create art. Basic concepts and historical comments.

  • Current research.
    The latest trends of research in the connection of maths and music. Artificial Intelligence, theoretical and new instruments, classification and composition tools.

  • Art and entertainment.
    A joyful display of artworks from artists and mathematicians in the field. Talks/concerts at scheduled events.

The exhibition is created by IMAGINARY, with the scientific and artistic advisorship of Moreno Andreatta (IRCAM Paris, Univ. Strasbourg), Thomas Noll (ESMUC Barcelona), Luisa Pereira and Manuela Donosa (New York) and Jürgen Richter-Gebert (TU Munich); and with the generous contributions of more than 20 artists and scientists working in the field.

The exhibition is presented by the Heidelberg Laureate Forum Foundation (HLFF), who created MAINS, a special event and exhibition venue dedicated to mathematics and informatics. The former showroom of the “Heidelberger Druckmaschinen” offers plenty of space to raise public awareness of the disciplines’ importance for society.

The exhibition was made possible by the Klaus Tschira Stiftung. It is supported by the Technical University of Munich.

IMAGINARY es parte del Año de la Ciencia 2014

Cómo obtenemos información, cómo vivimos, cómo nos comunicamos… todo esto ha cambiado radicalmente en las últimas dos décadas. Las nuevas tecnologías digitales son fundamentales en nuestra vida diaria y nos ofrecen un sinfín de posibilidades. Algunos lo llaman la revolución digital, que sería comparable a hitos como la invención de la imprenta. El Año de la Ciencia 2014 «La Sociedad Digital» nos enseña cómo la investigación puede proporcionar nuevas maneras de promover este desarrollo centrado en el impacto de la revolución digital.

Una de las maneras en que IMAGINARY comunicamos la ciencia es a través de nuestra plataforma digital. Las exposiciones se desarrollan junto a los usuarios, que son la sociedad misma. También le damos un espacio a los expositores digitales y al intercambio de conocimiento e información. A todos los efectos, IMAGINARY es «divulgación de la ciencia 2.0».

Tendremos numerosos eventos de promoción de la comunicación ciencia-público. Nuestra exposición «Matematicas del planeta Tierra» en el Deutsches Technikmuseum en Berlín es uno de ellos. Se inaugura esta semana el jueves 27 de marzo, y permanecerá abierta hasta el 30 de junio.

Entdeckerbox

The Mathematics behind the various pieces of content can be discovered playfully and interactively – it is yours to conjecture and construct new experiences. The modules are designed to prompt you to stretch your mathematical thinking and invite further exploration beyond the content of the discovery box.  

Such an investigative approach, be it with teachers, with a mathematician, or alone with the help of books, articles or even a white sheet of paper is an integral part of what it means to think mathematically. As such, the discovery box is designed particularly to appeal teachers and students, or the general public with an interest in Mathematics. 

The IMAGINARY project is funded by Klaus Tschira Stiftung, the 3D prints are from trinckle.com in Berlin. All digital contents can be downloaded for free via www. imaginary.org/entdeckerbox

Please note: The IMAGINARY-Entdeckerbox is so far only available in German language. Big parts of the contents have been translated to English, and others to Spanish. Please let us know if you are interested in helping us to prepare a a fully translated discovery box in your language.

Imaginary at the opening of the Year of Science on Artificial Intelligence

AI Jam allows visitors to interact with a neuronal network that has been trained with thousands of scores of piano and drum music. At the opening of the German Year of Science, invited guests will have the oportunity to try our exhibit for the first time. Later this year, AI Jam will also tour on the floating science center MS Wissenschaft and will be shown at various train stations throughout Germany.

The exhibit is installed in a specially designed furniture that includes both a piano keyboard and drum pads. The software is based on the “AI Duet” demo, built by Yotam Mann, the Magenta and Creative Lab teams at Google.
