Mathematic is a Beautiful Thing



The idea of mathematics being beautiful is not new. As Plato once said, the highest form of pure thought is in mathematics. Even Wikipedia describe how for years many mathematicians derive aesthetic pleasure from their work, and from mathematics in general. The thing is that for many, Maths is just a creative activity.

And I agree with that. Think about it, the truth is that humans are not much different from numbers... some are natural, some are odd, some are positive, some are negative, some are whole, some are in fractions, some are complex, some are imaginary and each one is unique. The same beauty that defines human nature.

This is why I admire the work around Future Morph, a place designed to show people some of the amazing and unexpected careers that studying science, technology, engineering and maths can lead to.

The interface is fun. The experience is dynamic. The goal is beautiful. Hope you enjoy it too!
