Any prospects for a road show? --Michael On Mon, Aug 17, 2009 at 10:33 PM, George W. Hart <george@georgehart.com>wrote:
Dear Math Funsters,
The New York Times said:
The Math Midway "turned the common conception of mathematics into a circus of square-wheeled tricycles, giant blocks and simulated roller coasters... combining the mobility of a state-fair swath of carny booths with the slick execution of an educational theme park."
The New Yorker said:
"The idea behind the museum, which doesn't yet have a home, is that math is ubiquitous, [and] supercool..."
Come see for yourself. The Math Midway exhibit has two upcoming temporary appearances scheduled:
1) Saturday and Sunday, August 29 and 30, in Manhattan, with a teacher's preview on the 28th.
2) Spring 2010 at the New York Hall of Science
Details here: http://www.mathmidway.org/
Please pass this on to anyone who may be interested in attending or helping to further develop this world-class, interactive, hands-on Museum of Mathematics.
