On to the conference to hear about: The Beauty of an Archetype: Prime Numbers, Animated Lines to Animated Perspective, Geometric Study of Architectural Designs on a Twelfth Century Structure, and Common Threads between Mathematics and Quilting. It does seem like there's something for everyone here! Having a couple of hours before the scheduled evening entertainment, we were asked to join a merry group of educators/artists for dinner. Our party was made up of teachers from The Netherlands, Finland, India, the US, and one woman from Korea - who incidentally translated the menu for us! Lucky, again! Good conversation and great fun was had by all! After dinner we attended the Bridges Seoul Experimental Theater. Steve Abbott, Professor of Mathematics at Middlebury College, directed the event. (In recent years many professors have become involved in scholarly research about ways mathematics and theater intersect.) What better way to share his excitement at this connection than at a conference of art and math educators! Weary, but happy and more knowledgeable, we headed for the Seoul Grand Park subway station. There's still some gathering and packing that needs to be done before our departure. No time to write tomorrow before our early morning departure. We hoped you enjoyed viewing and reading about our grand adventure. We are so grateful to have had this experience.
Over and out,
Sarah and Becky
