Margaret Wertheim ("Pythagoras Trousers" and the hyperbolic crochet coral reef
project) is a co-founder of the Institute For Figuring, an organization based
in Los Angeles, California, that promotes the public understanding of the
poetic and aesthetic dimensions of science and mathematics
Margaret, who wrote: "A Field Guide to Hyperbolic Space: An Exploration of the
Intersection of Higher Geometry and Feminine Handicraft", is interested in
contacting lacemakers in the Los Angeles area. [DH met her at a conference
recently and suggested that after the crochet coral reef she might find
lacemaking interesting :), hence her request.]
