The Webinar on Math and Poetry took place on Thursday, January 28th, 2021 from 2 pm until 3:30 pm, with Adriana Leon, Valeria Zuñiga, Paola Serrano and Alejandra Pacheco from Mexico, as our invited speakers. This virtual event was free and open to the general public.
The invited speakers explained that math and poetry have a close relation because they are both daughters of imagination. The speakers analyzed a poem that is called “The Precise Kiss” written by the chemist Frederick Soddy. They also shared a poem inspired by the Fibonacci series and another poem about zero and infinity, and highlighted the mathematician Lewis Carroll who wrote “Alice in Wonderland,” Ada Lovelace and Emmy Noether.
