Design Zone Opening
A brand new exhibition: Can you crossfade tracks in a smooth groove? Get bodies moving on the dance floor? How does a high amplitude half-pipe really work? Design is everywhere we look and in everything we do, and math is behind it all. Design Zone explores mathematical concepts like patterns, variables, scale, slope and ratios used by artists, architects, engineers, musicians and other innovators. The exhibition is organized into three interactive areas that highlight the relationship between mathematical thinking and the creative process. In each area, you'll solve real-world challenges and discover that math isn't just a subject in school--it's one of the coolest creative tools we have to design and invent everything in the world of art, music, entertainment and extreme sports.
