Chaos & Complex Systems Seminar
Poetry, mathematics, and science
Date: Tuesday, February 17th
Time: 12:05 pm
Place: 4274 Chamberlin
Speaker: Robin Chapman, UW Department of Communicative Disorders
Abstract: Several recent anthologies have focused on the use of mathematics and science in poetry across the centuries. I'll read from my own and other's work, particularly the collection Strange Attractors: Poems of Love and Mathematics, in honor of Valentine's Day, and discuss briefly what questions a science of poetry comprehension might ask.
