Our minisymposium aims to bring together researchers, artists, and
educators interested in the connection and collaboration of mathematics
and arts. We are looking for presentations tackling one of the following
aspects:
Artistic objects or projects that include mathematical components and
put a focus on the imparting of those components.
Examples for combining mathematics and arts in high school or university
teaching as well as in outreach projects directed at the general public.
Mathematical objects, entities, and projects that invite a discussion of
their illustrations in the broadest sense, e.g., via images, 3D prints,
software, etc.
We aim to cover a variety of topics centered around the inclusion of
mathematics in different art forms like painting, sculpture,
architecture, textiles, or music. As the mathematics component cannot be
self-explanatory to the lay-person, the minisymposium aims to present
works that make it explicit. For instance, geometric patterns and
constructions can be an invitation to explore deeper mathematics, but
the talk should clearly indicate how the recipient is brought into
contact with mathematics via the artwork. Furthermore, we are looking
for contributions that provide an educational opportunity with a clear
learning outcome for the recipient. For instance, it could not only be
learned that an artwork includes mathematics in general, but what
specific mathematical elements it represents or captures. In this sense,
an exemplary learning outcome would be not only that Escher's works
include mathematics, but that they include elements of the wallpaper
group as well as an understanding of what this means. Finally, we are
looking for illustrations of mathematical ideas, concepts, and objects
that carry not only the underlying mathematics, but also invite a
discussion about visualization and illustration practices.
The official language of the minisymposium will be English. Each talk
will be given 20 minutes plus an additional 5 minutes for questions. To
propose a talk, please send an abstract of 1,000 to 1,500 characters
(including spaces) and at least one illustrating picture, a link to a
video, or some other supporting material to dmv.math.art@gmail.com by
May 14th, 2023.
Selected authors will be invited to extend their abstracts to
contributions that will be published in the peer-reviewed online journal
"w/k". Find here a compilation of articles originating from the 2020
rendition of the minisymposium as well as here a compilation of articles
from the 2021 edition.
If you have any questions, please send an email to dmv.math.art@gmail.com.
We are looking forward to your proposals,
Milena Damrau and Martin Skrodzki
