Profound mathematical ideas for romantics, to help us linger in the difference we share.
Our times are defined by narrow views and limited perspectives. Poetry, art and maths can help us move against rigidity and separation, and around such obstructions and violences. They offer us analogies for multidimensional thinking and integration, helping us linger in the difference we share. Fernando will introduce some key contemporary mathematical ideas, and talk about how they help us map and find meaning in the complexities of our lived experience by embracing a generative, trans understanding of our sociality.
Don’t worry, you won’t have to make any calculations or have any previous maths knowledge! Maths is a way of thinking, which is not limited to its techniques, even though, because of how it is taught in school, that’s what we are familiar with. Fernando is going to help us think about mathematical ideas as they can structure our worldviews; ways of thinking about the world that lots of us might already hold, but just didn’t ever think about in terms of maths before.
