G4G16 Hands-On Activities

Hands-on mathematical activities from the 16th Gathering for Gardner (G4G16), featuring recreations in the spirit of Martin Gardner, spanning puzzles, paper cutting, folding, coloring, movement activities, and large-scale sculpture builds. The original score was composed through a mathematical translation of the Gathering 4 Gardner website. The site's visual structure, color relationships, and thematic patterns were analyzed and converted into musical parameters, so in a real sense, the music is what the G4G community sounds like when you translate its underlying mathematics into sound.
