Math’s ‘Bunkbed Conjecture’ Has Been Debunked | Quanta Magazine It was intuitive, even obvious. It was also wrong.

"Exotic
{\displaystyle \mathbb {R} ^{4}}" is my usual answer to that question, but this recent resolution to a graph problem makes for a great story, too: www.quantamagazine.org/maths-bunkbe...

48h Wilhelmsburg Plakat: Ein Foto eines brutalistischen Kirchengebäudes, in das hinein ein riesiger, bunter Kranich illustriert ist. Es sieht aus, als würde er das Gebäude als Keyboard bespielen. Darüber die Festivalinfos: 7. bis 9. Juni, 177 Konzerte, 57 Orte.

Hiermit darf ich feierlich das erste Plakatmotiv für #48hWilhelmsburg2024 enthüllen. 🥳

Wer es noch nicht kennt: "48h Wilhelmsburg" ist ein hyperlokales, interkulturelles Musikfestival, bei dem innerhalb von 48h etwa 150 Konzerte an 50 verschiedenen Orten (!) in ganz Wilhelmsburg stattfinden.
