To mark National Science Week, the Sydney Mathematical Research Institute (SMRI) and the
Chau Chak Wing Museum (CCWM) are collaborating again on a stimulating weekend for the whole family in the museum at the University of Sydney!
This year’s theme of National Science Week is ‘Decoding the Universe – Exploring the unknown with nature’s hidden language’. Over the weekend, we will be delving into the hidden languages of nature – how do mathematics and sciences describe the world around us and allow us to push the boundaries of knowledge?
Joined by the
Sydney Institute for Astronomy, we will be celebrating with a variety of activities and floor talks, culminating in an interdisciplinary panel exploring the theme. To explore how the rules of nature govern our world, join us to participate in
Briony Barr’s Klein Bottle Experiment. This is a large-scale, collaborative artwork which uses rule-based play to visualise how participants interact with one another and our environment, using the hidden languages of the Universe!
