"Visual or sonic, real or virtual, our experiences are a constant interface with key algebraic concepts like proportional and inverse relationships, graphical representations of slope, arithmetical functions, and independent and dependent variables. Design Zone: Behind the Scenes is a brand-new exhibit created by OMSI that makes math fun by directly connecting mathematical concepts to real-life experiences like hip-hop, art, skate parks, and more."

"20th-century mathematical genius Amalie Noether. Emmy Noether's theorem united two pillars of physics: symmetry in nature and the universal laws of conservation. Albert Einstein called her the most "significant" and "creative" female mathematician of all time, and others of her contemporaries were inclined to drop the modification by sex. She invented a theorem that united with magisterial concision two conceptual pillars of physics: symmetry in nature and the universal laws of conservation"

Numberphile is a quirky exploration of the world of mathematics and numbers.
