The interactive exhibition “Discover the Art of Math!” helps visitors understand and visualize the logic of math and its various equations by simple examples, while focusing on geometry.
Math is everywhere – in art, technology, medical science, handicrafts and in many other spheres. Through all the different times of life, it is important to have a basic knowledge of the subject. You can even see math in nature! For instance, have you heard of the Fibonacci sequence (named after Leonardo Fibonacci)? In math, these numbers follow an integer sequence: 0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89, 144…
By definition, the first two numbers in the Fibonacci sequence are 0 and 1, and each subsequent number is the sum of the previous two. They also appear in biological settings, like in the branching of trees, the arrangement of leaves on a stem, the fruit sprouts of a pineapple, the flowering of the artichoke, an uncurling fern and the arrangement of a pinecone.
