The next talk in the Bay Area Mathematical Adventures<\/a> series is this Friday. Robert Bryant, the current director of MSRI<\/a>, will speak on “Rolling and Tumbling—The idea of Holonomy<\/a>.” It sounds like a fun talk; he’ll illustrate his talk with “everyday and some not-so-everyday toys.”<\/p>\n

I’ve posted the slides<\/a> from my Bay Area Mathematical Adventures talk last month on From Photographs to Models: The Mathematics of Image-Based Modeling<\/a>. I blogged about that experience here<\/a>. I had hoped to post a link to the video at the same time, but it isn’t ready yet. I never feel that a talk is fully captured from just the slides, especially one that was designed to be interactive. I will post a link to the video once it is up.<\/p>\n

I’d be tempted to go to Bryant’s talk<\/a> except that I’m singing that night. Two FXPAL folks, Bill van Melle<\/a> and I, sing in the 40 voice Bay Choral Guild<\/a>. We have concerts Fri, Sat, and Sun<\/a> at various Bay Area locations. Come if you are in the area and would enjoy a concert of festive Baroque choral works<\/a> performed by our excellent group together with an outstanding group of soloists and musicians!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
