When I prepare for the Math/Maths Podcast I make some notes on each story so I have quick access to the key information when talking to Samuel Hansen. As an experiment, I have tried to tidy these up and place them here in my Math/Maths notebook.

The Mathematician's Shirts

Julia Collins came on the podcast episode 58 to talk to us about the Mathematician's Shirts exhibit, designed by Julia and Madeleine Shepherd as part of the arts-science collaborative in Edinburgh, ASCUS.

There is an article about the ASCUS exhibits, in which Mathematician's Shirts features heavily. This says:
The first work that visitors to the exhibitions will see, even before entering the exhibition, is The Mathematician’s Shirts: a display consisting of a series of shirts cut and tied into knots and scrawled with complex formulas.
Also available is the project blog, which describes some of how the process worked, and a Flickr group with further photos of the exhibit.
