Euro-Workshop on Mathematical Views on Architecture, Art and Design

Objective

The MatOmium 2001 is an Euro-Workshop on Mathematical Views on Architecture, Art and Design. It will welcome mathematical ideas inspired by remarkable observations or sensory perceptions and vice versa real and virtual "forms" with an original mathematical interpretation. Topics are locations or objects of interest to wandering mathematicians, structure of design objects or (musical) compositions, mathematical views on architectural achievements, artist's interpretations. The contributions selected for MatOmium 2001 will be thematically linked to exceptional locations: the Atomium (Belgium's nine-sphere landmark), an Institute for non-European Art and Sciences (Belgium's history is linked to Africa), and the Horta Drawing Museum (built by the Belgian architect). Participants will experience the impact of adapted locations for acquiring a genuine inspiration. MatOmium 2001 is a regional conference of Nobel Prize Yuval Ne'eman's ISIS.

It will encourage an interaction between remote disciplines. Society sometimes seems subdivided in two worlds, with the artistic world on one side, and the scientific at the other. Competition will force them to work towards a mutual understanding, as this subdivision affects the quality of life. Organisations based in the US, Argentina and Australia have similar objectives. However, senior researchers in Europe start to realise that their continent should not stay behind in this worldly movement. Editors of leading mathematics journals paying attention to MatOmium like topics will join forces: The Mathematical Intelligencer, the Eur. Math Soc. Newsletter, the Nexus Journal, Visual Mathematics (electronic journal). Moreover, special "Women in Science" sessions will stress that women scientists play a leading role in this mathematical field.
