Institute of Mathematics, Oxford
Oxford University’s new mathematics departments designed by Rafael Vinoly Architects (RVA). In order to immerse myself in the project I attended a maths lecture. For an hour the lecturer wrote out equations on white boards rolling them up high into the air. It seemed inconceivable that any human being could possibly be following his train of thought. Eventually he started to giggle, “now I’m going to do something a little bit funny.” As the latest line of complex formulae ascended up into general view laughter broke out in the auditorium. It was a maths joke, apparently.
