Theme and Objectives There are many connections between architecture and mathematics: mathematic principles may be used as a basis for an architectural design, or as a tool for analyzing an existing monument; architecture may be a concrete expression of mathematical ideas, becoming, in a sense, "visual mathematics." Nexus 2010, the eighth in a biennial series of meetings, will once again bring together all those working with ideas related to both architecture and mathematics. The purpose of Nexus 2010 is to allow participants to exchange ideas first-hand. Papers presented at the conference will be published in the Nexus Network Journal, a peer-reviewed scholar journal co-published by Kim Williams Books and Birkhäuser Publishers, and online at SpringerLink, providing a collective voice for researchers of more than one discipline This edition of Nexus includes participation in the Open Source Seminar at the Casa da Música, Saturday 11 June at 14.30. This event is organized for the Circo de Ideias with the participation of Cecil Balmond and others. Organizer: Gonçalo Antunes Azevedo. +info >>>> 2010 VenueAnfiteatro Fernando Távora Faculdade
