1/20/23 -- Boston, Massachusetts The opening of the Mathemalchemy Project Jan 20 at the 808 Gallery. The Mathemalchemy project became in 2020 an exciting collaborative enterprise, driven by the energy and enthusiasm of twenty-four mathematical artists and artistic mathematicians including BU’s Research Assistant Professor, Dr. Li-Mei Lim. After more than a year of meeting only remotely and fabricating components in their separate locations, they met in the summer of 2021 and built a large multimedia art installation that celebrates the creativity and beauty of mathematics.
