Science and Culture: Charting the history of Western art with math.

For more than a century, researchers have used statistics to study writing style in a sort of literary forensics technique called stylometry. In 1901, physicist T. C. Mendenhall famously measured word-length frequency in William Shakespeare’s works and reported that the writer’s style was awfully close to that of fellow writer Christopher Marlowe, fueling rumors that the lattermayhavewrittenwor...

Science and Culture: Solving a math problem to create art.

Mathematician Robert Bosch never intended to become an artist. But 15 years ago, he started looking for ways to engage his students in optimization research, his field of expertise. Optimization is the mathematical quest for the best way to do something, from finding the shortest distance between two places to figuring out the best way to pack a suitcase. It often involves calculating the highe...

Art, Math, Science, and Computers

This article discusses and illustrates the beneficial symbiosis between art, math, science, and computers. Mathematical thinking, computer programs, and interactive CAD environments make it possible to gain a deeper understanding of existing artwork and to extract generating paradigms that can produce additional art pieces of the same type. Conversely, well-crafted visualization models for pure...
