The Penrose Proofs: an exhibition of Roger Penrose’s Scientific Drawings 1-6
Roger Penrose
(University of Oxford)
Further Information
As you might expect from a man whose family included the Surrealist artist Roland Penrose, Roger Penrose has always thought visually. That thinking is captured brilliantly in this selection of Roger’s drawings that he produced for his published works and papers.
From quasi-symmetric patterns to graphic illustrations of the paradoxical three versions of reality via twistor theory and the brain, this selection captures the stunning range of Roger’s scientific work and the visual thinking that inspires and describes it.

Working together: end-of-term mathematical board games
Abstract
Would you like to meet some of your fellow students, and some graduate students and postdocs, in an informal and relaxed atmosphere, while building your communication skills? In this Friday@2 session, you'll be able to play a selection of board games, meet new people, and practise working together. What better way to spend the final Friday afternoon of term?! We'll play the games in the south Mezzanine area of the Andrew Wiles Building, outside L3.
