Pop Math is live!
Are you in need of mathematical entertainment on these long, dark lockdown days? Then fear not. From today you can consult the Pop Math online calendar, which shows you maths events for a general audience from all over the world at a glance. There's an interactive map you can zoom in on and click on events that might interest you. For the moment Pop Math only advertises online events, but in the future it will of course also include face to face ones. And if you are an event organiser it's easy to submit your events to be included.
To give you a taster, this week you can choose a conference on optimal transport in France, a talk on the number 1 in Germany, an event on AI and maths in Italy, or a presentation on Indra's pearls in Singapore! The website also features workshops (as a week-long one in the UK) and festivals, like the upcoming math marathon in Spain and maths week in Ireland. The events can be commercial or non-profit and also explore the topic of maths outreach, in addition to maths itself.
Pop Math was created by the Raising Public Awareness Committee of the European Mathematical Society.
