  • Math Encounters: "Color My World: making modular origami map coloring models" with Eve Torrence on November 2, 2022
    Why is the coloring of maps an interesting mathematical problem? How can we visualize a map on a torus (doughnut shape)? Join mathematician and mathematical artist Dr. Eve Torrence for this hands-on workshop that combines paper folding, topology, and graph theory to create a three-dimensional mathematical sculpture that demonstrates one case of a theorem that took more than 70 years to prove!
    Special introduction by Uyen Nguyen, origami fashion designer and educator.
    Math Encounters is a public presentation series celebrating the spectacular world of mathematics, presented by the Simons Foundation and the National Museum of Mathematics.
