Shows

Each Science Engagement event organized under the programme "Conceptual Roots for Sustainable Development" takes the form of an improvised theatrical performance (show) that deliberates on one or more mathematical concepts with the help of artistic elements. The performers will comprise of mathematicians, musicians and artists. The audience is general public, with strong representation of school learners.

The goal of each show is to convey intuition behind one or more basic mathematical concepts in a way that instills passion for understanding mathematics, and reveals its intuitive simplicity.

The shows are recorded and will be available for online viewing on the Fundamano YouTube channel.

Fundamano Press Release

On the evening of 4th of November, at the Drostdy Theatre in Stellenbosch, Mathematics was taken to stage in a theatrical production combining conceptual roots of mathematics with music and brilliant performance of university students studying mathematics under various programs, including engineering and science. The production brought together four shows: “Is it really imaginary?”, “Parrot (un)learning”, “Depth of secrets” and “Music vs mathematics”. The first show, “Is it really imaginary?”, was prepared and presented by a production team brought together by Dr. Sophie Marques, a mathematician in the Department of Mathematical Sciences at Stellenbosch University, who is the founder and the managing director of the Wisaarkhu online science engagement magazine. The show explored the concept of an imaginary number, which comes into existence by thinking outside the box, and is later understood to be a fundamental component of the physical universe. The performers in the production tea...
