About

Welcome to Math-Art.net.

What is Math-Art.net?
Math-Art.net is a gallery-cum-blog-cum-magazine of sorts. We feature arts that were formed by mathematical imagery, and mathematical imagery formed in arts. I aim that Math-Art.net will be both accessible to those with a math background and those without. Because those liberal arts students are the people who actually enjoy art, eh? LOL.

A Math-Art A Day
On Math-Art.net, I try to post a new math-art a day. That is this site’s policy - that my readers get a brand new mathematical artwork everyday. The only days I do not post a new artwork is if there is an interview published, or on weekends. On some weekends, when I’m free, I may actually post new math-arts.

How did this site get started?
Well, that’s an interesting tale to behold. I’ve always loved mathematics (though I’m not very good at it), and I’ve always loved art (arguably, I can do mathematics better than I can draw).

Through time, as I grew up, I noticed plenty of stuff in mathematics that looked really pretty (think fractals), and plenty of stuff in art have mathematical substance imbued in them (think Mona Lisa, who has a face that fits perfectly to a decagon complex). I guess that’s when the link is formed.

Then, I started dabbling in R. One day, I was messing about in R, and I found that I could produce beautiful pictures using R. I immediately set about to start a R-gallery, but that plan didn’t come to fruition either, as I was quite busy with other works. After enough deliberation and procastinations, I finally settled in Math-Art.net, because it’s mathematics that produce beautiful art.

Who are you?
I’m nobody; just a spook in the wind. Actually, I prefer to remain anonymous. Or you can call me Aaron A. Aaronson.

Do you produce all the mathematical artwork found on this site?
Heavens, no! I don’t have the skills or understanding to perform such complex calculations. I don’t even really understand the basic transform. Though I can read complex math and physics papers without problems, my understanding of math is pretty much just on the surface. Press me on non-Euclidean space, and I’ll space out. I’ll stick with simple (and ugly) equations like g(x)=x² + 2x + c.

Most of the art found on this website are found elsewhere. I credit the rightful producer(s) of the mathematical artwork featured on this website. This website/gallery is for visual pleasures only, though occasionally I do post my own stuff up.
