#MathAndArt
Whenever I come to Asheville, NC, I try to visit the lovely Asheville #artMuseum. Perhaps next July on way back fr my annual math teachers’ camp I may present a program on #mathAndArt? Optimistic discussions underway! First stop today: exhibit ‘The Art of Paper’. ashevilleart.org #mtbos #iteachmath

At our math teachers’ camp at Western Carolina University we had 5m to plan and then 30m to execute a piece of mathematical art. I was inspired by the integer partition problem and had my work hung in position 8 - it is NOT Fibonacci/Pingala! #mtbos #iteachmath #mathisfun #mathAndArt

It’s always so interesting/fun visiting the River Arts District in Asheville . I wish I had more time to visit more of the galleries, but one of the folks at the NC Glass Center planted a seed when he started talking about how important math is in his art. Stay tuned! #mtbos #iteachmath #mathandart

We already have some cool plans for interior architecture & design - Heather Washburn, Sharece Ramos, Raphael Hatley, & team at calico-studio.com are great as are Jacob Zurbuch, John Rowe, & team at zurbuchconstruction.com. It'll be mathy (Einstein tiles? #mathAndArt) & beautiful! #mtbos #iteachmath
