*Ruth Charney on Modeling with Cubes [Macromedia Flash Player]*
http://www.maa.org/news/102308charney.html
The Mathematical Association of America (MAA) continues to build on
their already solid online presence with the addition of this lecture
by noted mathematician and scholar Professor Ruth Charney. This
particular lecture was given at the MAA's Carriage House Conference
Center in the fall of 2008 and it deals with how cubes can be used to
represent a variety of systems. As Charney notes, "The geometry of
these spaces is strange, complicated, and a lot of fun to study."
Visitors to the site can watch several particularly lucid examples
from Charney's talk, read her biography, and also read a detailed
interview with her conducted by Michael Pearson. [KMG]
