How do we go back to the Pythagorean tradition of simultaneously admiring both math and music? How do we restore balance between Apollo and Dionysus?
On this special evening, we will attempt to do just that. Following the 5:30 p.m. talk by Professor Edward Frenkel, there will be a "math and music" ceremony, administered not by a priest or shaman but, as is more common these days, by DJs.
DJ Wilder (Anna Fedorova) will dazzle us with music sourced from different genres and epochs, followed by DJ Moonstein (Edward Frenkel himself) playing back-to-back with DJ Chi (Cihat Fitzgerald) taking us further into the unknown. Magic awaits.
This program is in-person only. If you have symptoms of illness (coughing, fever, etc.), we ask that you either stay home or wear a mask. Our front desk has complimentary masks for members and guests who would like one.
