The Artful Maths Book - Tarquin

The wonderful thing about mathematical art is that the most beautiful geometric patterns can be produced without needing to be able to draw, or be ‘good at art’.
Mathematical art is accessible to people of all ages: its algorithmic nature means that it simply requires the ability to follow instructions carefully and to use a pencil and ruler accurately. It is engaging, enriching and thoroughly enjoyable, enabling everyone to experience the joy of success through mathematical art-making.

The six Artful Maths activities in this book are hands-on tasks that will develop important skills such as hand-eye co-ordination, manual dexterity and design thinking, which is a valuable form of problem-solving. Decisions need to be made about placement, size and colour, all of which entail thinking about measurements, proportions and symmetry. For ages 9 to adult.

Contents:

  • Curves of Pursuit
  • Mazes and Labyrinths
  • Impossible Objects
  • Epicycloids
  • Perfect Proportions
  • Parabolic Curves

The Artful Maths Activity Book is a stand-alone book for those who wish to work through the activities independently. An ideal addition to a mathematics library or club - and as a prize too.
