Imagine Math 8 : Dreaming Venice, Paperback / softback Book

Imagine Math 8 : Dreaming Venice Paperback / softback

Edited by Michele Emmer, Marco Abate

Paperback / softback

Description

This eighth volume of Imagine Math is different from all the previous ones.

The reason is very clear: in the last two years, the world changed, and we still do not know what the world of tomorrow will look like.

Difficult to make predictions. This volume has a subtitle Dreaming Venice. Venice, the dream city of dreams, that miraculous image of a city on water that resisted for hundreds of years, has become in the last two years truly unreachable.

Many things tie this book to the previous ones. Once again, this volume also starts like Imagine Math 7, with a homage to the Italian artist Mimmo Paladino who created exclusively for the Imagine Math 8 volume a new series of ten original and unique works of art dedicated to Piero della Francesca.

Many artists, art historians, designers and musicians are involved in the new book, including Linda D.

Henderson and Marco Pierini, Claudio Ambrosini and Davide Amodio.

Space also for comics and mathematics in a Disney key.

Many applications, from Origami to mathematical models for world hunger.

Particular attention to classical and modern architecture, with Tullia Iori. As usual, the topics are treated in a way that is rigorous but captivating, detailed and full of evocations.

This is an all-embracing look at the world of mathematics and culture.
