  I was pleasantly surprised by the amazing performance I witnessed. It was not an easy feat to achieve, but the team pulled it off perfectly. The music they played in the background was also awesome and really matched the rhythm and beats of the performance. The structure they created was equally impressive. They did all these crazy moves like the portcullis, eight-point star, oxhead, and 8/4 lock, and they did them so fast and smooth! Every single person on the team was on point and their footwork and positioning were spot-on. Watching their performance actually got me thinking - why not do math on stage too?

  WEEK 2: Kepler explores the geometric and physical principles underlying the formation of snowflakes and other natural phenomena. He draws parallels between the hexagonal patterns found in snowflakes, honeycombs, and pomegranate seeds, suggesting these shapes are efficient solutions to packing problems in nature. Kepler ponders the philosophical implications of these natural patterns, reflecting on the inherent mathematical intelligence within nature's design. He considered the material necessity and the innate tendencies of natural bodies to assume particular forms that optimize space and function. Kepler integrated geometry, physics, and philosophy to understand the principles that govern the natural world. STOP 1： " For a thing has a shape of its own when it is bounded by itself, since boundaries determine shapes. "(p.37) This quote resonates with the concept that the identity of an object, concept, or entity is largely framed by where it ends—where the line is dr...

      WEEK 9 Karaali, G. (2014). Can zombies write mathematical poetry? mathematical poetry as a model for humanistic mathematics.  Journal of Mathematics and the Arts, 8 (1-2), 38-45.  https://doi.org/10.1080/17513472.2014.926685    Briefly Summary: The article by Gizem Karaali discusses the interplay between mathematics and poetry, advocating for mathematical poetry as a means to foster a humanistic appreciation of mathematics. Karaali reflects on her personal journey with mathematical poetry, how it can be used effectively in education, and its role in challenging and expanding the conventional perception of mathematics as solely a logical or technical field. Through examples and classroom experiences, she illustrates the potential of mathematical poetry to engage emotions, creativity, and a broader understanding of mathematics as an integral part of human culture and intellectual endeavor. The concept of "humanistic mathematics...
