My name tag and Manifest button atop the exhibition postcard.

Had a great time at the Manifest Gallery for the opening of the current exhibitions, which include my piece Braces of Eight. Check it out if you are in the Cincinnati area! The show runs until February 20.

Excited to see my piece "Square Root of Two" won Best photograph, painting or print at the JMM!

Every Artist Has a Favorite Subject. For Some, That’s Math. At the annual Bridges conference, mathematical creativity was on dazzling display.

AMS member Siobhan Roberts explores the Bridges conference, in her New York Times article, "Every Artist Has a Favorite Subject. For Some, That’s Mathm," featuring AMS members Henry Segerman's (Oklahoma State University) and David Reimann's (Albion College) art. ow.ly/LkrV50XbTB6

Submissions are now being accepted for the Exhibition of Mathematical Art to be held as part of the Joint Mathematics Meetings, Washington, DC, in January of 2026. Apply online through October 15 at gallery.bridgesmathart.org. pic.x.com/MGSEyexSzo

Tonight, @momath.bsky.social and @stevenstrogatz.com celebrated the winners of the math communication prize that bears Steve's name. Want to be inspired by creativity of high schoolers? See the prize winners work at: momath.org/strogatzpriz...

Submissions are now being accepted through September 14 for SCULPT 2025. Accepted work will be presented in a ZOOM Show and Tell event on November 7. In addition, works will be digitally showcased in the exhibition section of SCULPT 2025 and in a proceedings volume.

After today's talks, the #art exhibit of the Bridges #MathArt conference has opened. Like the conference papers, all exhibited artworks are openly accessible online. While they are better in person, you can find their digital representations here: gallery.bridgesmathart.org/exhibitions/....

Looking forward to meeting everyone in Eindhoven on Monday and to a great week of #MathArt!

Three knight's tours of a 32x32 chessboard. Each contains the set of edges (knight's moves) shown in the top left. Each is a single unicursal path that can be traced without lifting one's writing implement from the paper. #mathart

The cover of "An invitation to Real Analysis." The bottom half depicts a fair but not cloudless sky edged in the bottom corners by reaching branches of tall oaks tinged with spring green. A torus wrapped by a blue-and-cyan solenoid curve of slope pi fills the sky.

"An Invitation to Real Analysis" should be out in October. I hope the book helps students around the globe learn real analysis for many years into the future. In any event, telling this story of numbers, sets, sequences, and functions is something I got to do in My Time Here.

I'll be in NYC this week for the opening of an art exhibition at the Museum of Mathematics. "Warped Realities" showcases the work of seven artists, and includes ten of my ceramic sculptures. If you're able, please join us Thursday evening at 6:30. . momath.org/composite-ga...

Update to the #MathArt starter pack - it comes now with several more, great, stunning #Math artists. Be sure to follow all of them, please spread the word, and let me know if you have further suggestions!

polyhedra.tessera.li

The title is from the same phrase popularized in the 1960s by R. Buckminster "Bucky" Fuller. Fuller also popularized the geodesic dome, which has a related construction. This work is based on the 2,1-Goldberg polyhedron where the edges have been replaced with rhombic pieces of colored corrugated plastic. This piece is an abstract model of the Earth make from 210 pieces: 60 green pieces and 150 blue pieces. About 71% of the pieces are blue, which is about the same percentage of the Earth's surface covered by water. We are individuals, yet travel through space together, inhabitants on and caretakers of the same tiny planet we call Earth.

A pattern of circles. How many do you see? Clever counting should reveal a fun answer.

There's also some frequency modulation.

One single line (in a general sense) that draws 2025. Each row has a sine curve that varies in amplitude and frequency to distinguish between foreground and background.

The image, based on a photograph, is made from 1919 stippled X's. The size, crossing angle, and arm dimensions of each X is related to the original photo’s brightness and local gradient. The use of the X symbol celebrates her work on Hilbert's tenth problem and the common use of the X symbol for an unknown variable.

#MathArtMarch Day 5: Discovery
Julia is the Solution
This work pays homage to Julia Robinson (1919–1985). Her work was a critical component in discovering a proof (negatively) of Hilbert's tenth problem.

Here are 89 circles on a phyllotactic spiral. A nod to 89 being a Fibonacci number and the connection between many plant structures and Fibonacci numbers.
