Crochet Siting: Crocheting meets higher math

A clever web surfer over at Crochet Partners just let us know about a lecture series in CUNY’s contiuing education department. Daina Taimina and David Henderson or Cornell University will be visiting to lecture on the Hyperbolic Plane–a difficult to understand mathmatical concept that’s made easier with crochet! There’s a picture of their model on the lecture’s web site.

I wish I could go–I would love to hear impressions from anyone who does!
