[math-fun] Art + Math = Man Ray
Hello Math-Fun, here is a 70 minutes documentary about "Man Ray and the shakespearian equations", produced in 2019 by... a Fields Medal (Cédric Villani) -- who writes, in the last credit, that "no mathematicians were hurt during the shooting"! 90% of the video is in French without subtitles -- 10% in English. For me the film is a bit "old-fashioned" in its structure and narrative (especially Shakespeare played by a French company) but still interesting due to the wonderful archives material staging Man Ray, the Forties, Fifties and Sixties and the "sculptures" of the Poincaré Institute. Access to this ducumentary is free until May 17th, if I correctly understand the side notes in Le Monde paper. Anyway it is enjoyable! https://www.beauxarts.com/videos/en-exclusivite-le-documentaire-man-ray-et-l... Best, É.
EA: "90% of the video is in French without subtitles" A YouTube version appears to have subtitles, although, in parts, annoyingly <i>subtitles</i>: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nTOM8gkkn8A
