Daina Taimina comes to NYSCI



Cornell Geometry Professor, Daina Taimina, gave a talk at a Staff Science Seminar at the New York Hall of Science. Her blog details her visit: http://hyperbolic-crochet.blogspot.com/

Very heady math concepts combined with talk of crochet and art and nature. My colleagues were intrigued and followed every deep detail. This crowd is trained to love these ideas. I was complimented for inviting her. Glad I did.
