Music, Math & Malerei in the Culture Night

If you want to get both brain hemispheres exercised, you should set aside a few hours of the Culture Night in the company of math professor and cellist Matthias Kreck from the University of Bonn.

M³ is an event where also non-mathematicians can join. There is substance for both brain hemispheres: The emotional side will enjoy classical music and the rational side is needed to digest the mathematics. Both are affected by Luitgard Ilgs paintings.

Matthias Kreck will talk about the beauty of prime numbers ("Everything you always wanted to know about prime numbers") - and play Vivaldi, Schumann and Beethoven.

Matthias Kreck plays the cello and he is accompanied by the Norwegian pianist Bjorn Jahren - who is math professor at the University of Oslo. 

The lecture is in English. During the break, the MATH department offers refreshments.

Before and after M³ you are of course welcome in the Mathematical Gaming Cafe in the Botanical Gardens. We give a cup of coffee.
