THE MUSEUM OF MATHEMATICS STRIVES TO ENHANCE PUBLIC UNDERSTANDING AND PERCEPTION OF MATHEMATICS. ITS DYNAMIC EXHIBITS AND PROGRAMS WILL STIMULATE INQUIRY, SPARK CURIOSITY, AND REVEAL THE WONDERS OF MATHEMATICS. THE MUSEUM'S ACTIVITIES WILL LEAD A BROAD AND DIVERSE AUDIENCE TO UNDERSTAND THE EVOLVING, CREATIVE, HUMAN, AND AESTHETIC NATURE OF MATHEMATICS. 0 0 845048 268702 THE MATH MIDWAY (MATHMIDWAY.ORG) IS A TRAVELING EXHIBITION DESIGNED FOR USE IN SCIENCE CENTERS AND MUSEUMS, CELEBRATING THE WONDERS OF MATHEMATICS. IT CONSISTS OF TWENTY HANDS-ON, INTERACTIVE EXHIBITS, EACH ALLOWING VISITORS THE OPPORTUNITY TO EXPLORE A MATHEMATICAL CONCEPT AND DISCOVER SURPRISING PRINCIPLES OR PHENOMENA. THE MOST POPULAR EXHIBIT IS PEDAL ON THE PETALS, IN WHICH VISITORS HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO RIDE A SQUARE-WHEELED TRICYCLE, AND EXPERIENCE A SURPRISINGLY SMOOTH RIDE BECAUSE OF THE TRACK CALCULATED TO COMPENSATE FOR THE UNUSUAL WHEEL SHAPE. MORE INFORMATION AND A COMPLETE LIST OF COMPONENTS OF THE MATH MIDWAY CAN BE FOUND AT HTTP://MATHMIDWAY.ORGIN FISCAL 2013, THE MATH MIDWAY TRAVELED TO FOUR VENUES IN CALIFORNIA, NEW JERSEY, OHIO AND MARYLAND. GREETED BY ENTHUSIASTIC CROWDS IN EACH LOCATION, OVER 175,000 VISITORS BENEFITTED FROM A CHANCE TO INTERACT WITH THE EXHIBIT DURING THIS FISCAL YEAR, BRINGING THE LIFETIME TOTAL REACH OF THE MIDWAY TO ALMOST 450,000 VISITORS.THE MATH MIDWAY TRAVELING EXHIBITION IS ONE OF THE MOST PUBLICLY VISIBLE ACTIVITIES OF THE MUSEUM. DESIGNED BY MOMATH PRINCIPALS PRIOR TO THE FORMATION OF THE MUSEUM, IT SERVES AS A TANGIBLE PROOF OF CONCEPT: IT IS POSSIBLE TO BUILD ENGAGING EXHIBITS THAT VISITORS WILL NOT ONLY ENJOY BUT ACTIVELY SEEK OUT, AND WHICH WILL ILLUSTRATE A WIDE VARIETY OF MATHEMATICAL IDEAS AND PRINCIPLES. THE MATH MIDWAY TOUCHES ON AREAS OF MATH AS DIVERSE AS GEOMETRY AND GROUP THEORY, CALCULUS AND COMBINATORICS, AND SHOWS HOW MATH CAN CONNECT TO ART, OPTICS, ENGINEERING, AND MORE. DURING THIS FISCAL YEAR, THE MATH MIDWAY TRAVELED TO THE DISCOVERY CENTER FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY IN THOUSAND OAKS, CALIFORNIA (THROUGH 2011 AUGUST), LIBERTY SCIENCE CENTER IN JERSEY CITY, NEW JERSEY (2011 OCTOBER THROUGH 2012 JANUARY), BOONSHOFT MUSEUM OF DISCOVERY IN DAYTON, OHIO (2012 FEBRUARY 4 - APRIL 29), AND THE MARYLAND SCIENCE CENTER IN BALTIMORE, MARYLAND (STARTING IN MAY). IN RESPONSE TO THE SUCCESS OF THE MATH MIDWAY, A SMALLER, MORE PORTABLE VERSION OF SIX OF THE MOST POPULAR MATH MIDWAY EXHIBITS WERE BUILT. THE MATH MIDWAY 2 GO (MM2GO) SUITE OF EXHIBITS VISITED NUMEROUS SCIENCE FESTIVALS IN FISCAL 2013, BRINGING THE WONDERS OF MATH TO AN EVEN BROADER AUDIENCE. IN ITS INCEPTION YEAR, MM2GO REACHED ALMOST 5,000 PEOPLE. 845048 THE MOST IMPORTANT ACTIVITY OF THE MUSEUM OF MATHEMATICS (MOMATH) IS TO PREPARE TO OPEN A STATE-OF-THE-ART INNOVATIVE VISITOR CENTER IN MANHATTAN. THIS PHYSICAL MUSEUM WILL BE THE ONLY INSTITUTION OF ITS KIND IN NORTH AMERICA, AND THE ONLY HANDS-ON SCIENCE CENTER IN MANHATTAN, NY. FILLED WITH INTERACTIVE EXHIBITS THAT ALLOW OPEN-ENDED EXPLORATION AND SURPRISING DISCOVERIES, THE MUSEUM WILL FINALLY PROVIDE A PLACE WHERE KIDS AND ADULTS CAN GO TO BECOME EXCITED ABOUT MATHEMATICS. TO THE END OF CREATING A WORLD-CLASS VISITOR FACILITY, THE DESIGN TEAM OF THE MUSEUM OF MATHEMATICS COMPLETED THE PROCESS OF TAKING THE INCREDIBLE ARRAY OF IDEAS AND CONCEPTS GENEROUSLY PROVIDED BY THE MUSEUM'S ADVISORY COUNCIL OF MATHEMATICS PROFESSIONALS AND TURNING THEM INTO A COHERENT, WORKABLE DESIGN FOR A MUSEUM THAT WILL DELIGHT VISITORS WHILE HELPING TO CHANGE THEIR PERCEPTIONS OF MATHEMATICS. THE MOMATH TEAM DESIGNED AND BEGAN FABRICATING OVER FORTY STATE-OF-THE-ART HANDS-ON EXHIBITS WHICH BRING OUT THE WONDERS OF MATHEMATICS. IN ADDITION, THE MUSEUM HIRED AN OWNER'S REPRESENTATIVE, AN ARCHITECT, AND A CONSTRUCTION MANAGER AND BEGAN THE BUILDOUT OF THE 11 EAST 26TH STREET LOCATION. INTERESTED PARTIES CAN LEARN MORE AT HTTP://MOMATH.ORG (THE WEBSITE OF THE MUSEUM OF MATHEMATICS).THE MUSEUM EXHIBITION DOES NOT YET CONSTITUTE A REVENUE-GENERATING PROGRAM. THE ORGANIZATION CONTINUES TO WORK ON A STATE-OF-THE-ART,INTERACTIVE VISITOR CENTER WHICH WILL CREATE A PLACE WHERE KIDS AND ADULTS CAN GO TO BECOME EXCITED ABOUT MATHEMATICS. THIS PROGRAM HAS NOT YET BEGUN TO REACH THE PUBLIC. 2065671 1488036 EVEN IN ADVANCE OF OPENING ITS VISITOR CENTER, THE MUSEUM OF MATHEMATICS IS OPERATING A NUMBER OF PROGRAMS THAT REACH INTO THE COMMUNITY TO PROVIDE EXPERIENCES THAT HIGHLIGHT THE EVOLVING, CREATIVE, AND AESTHETIC NATURE OF MATHEMATICS. THESE PROGRAMS ALSO AIM TO SHOW THE MANY UNEXPECTED WAYS THAT MATH TOUCHES ON THE WORLD AROUND US AND ON OUR EVERYDAY LIVES. THEY INCLUDE THE TRAVELING EXHIBITIONS (MATH MIDWAY AND MATH MIDWAY 2 GO) AND MONTHLY PRESENTATION SERIES (MATH ENCOUNTERS) PREVIOUSLY MENTIONED, OTHER FESTIVAL PRESENTATIONS, TEACHER TRAINING WORKSHOPS, DIRECT STUDENT PROGRAMS, MATH TOURNAMENTS, AND MATHEMATICAL WALKING TOURS. IN FISCAL 2013, THE MATH MIDWAY VISITED MARYLAND SCIENCE CENTER IN BALTIMORE, MD, THE LAWRENCE HALL OF SCIENCE IN BERKELEY, CA, THE MUSEUM OF DISCOVERY AND SCIENCE IN FORT LAUDERDALE, FL, AND TURTLE BAY EXPLORATION PARK IN REDDING, CA. DURING THIS TIME, THE MATH MIDWAY SAW APPROXIMATELY 122,000 VISITORS, BRINGING MIDWAY'S LIFETIME TOTAL UP TO APPROXIMATELY 587,500 VISITORS.DURING THE SAME PERIOD, MM2GO VISITED 15 VENUES, REACHING APPROXIMATELY 9,000 VISITORS. OF THE 15 VENUES, 4 WERE FESTIVALS, 10 WERE SCHOOLS AND ONE WAS A CONFERENCE.MATH ENCOUNTERS (MATHENCOUNTERS.ORG) IS A FREE PUBLIC PRESENTATION SERIES DESIGNED TO DEMONSTRATE THE RICHNESS OF MATHEMATICS. HIGHLIGHTS DURING FISCAL 2013 INCLUDED PRESENTATIONS BY GOOGLE'S DIRECTOR OF RESEARCH, PETER NORVIG, AND BY GUNTER ZIEGLER, GERMANY'S "COMMUNICATOR OF THE YEAR." THIS FLAGSHIP MONTHLY SERIES ROUTINELY DRAWS SEVERAL HUNDRED ATTENDEES, AND OVER 3,200 PEOPLE ATTENDED THE SERIES THIS YEAR.
