Loeb Lecture: A world from a sheet of paper

Speaker: Tadashi Tokieda, Stanford University

Abstract: Starting from just a sheet of paper, by folding, stacking, crumpling, tearing, we will explore a rich variety of phenomena, from magic tricks and geometry through elasticity and the traditional Japanese art of origami to medical devices and ‘h-principle’.  Much of the lecture consists of table-top demos.

Host: Brett Wick

There will be a pre-talk tea in Cupples I, Room 200 (Lounge) from 3:00pm to 3:50pm
