EUROPEAN SOCIETY FOR MATHEMATICS AND ARTS

 

  • Governance

The European Society for Mathematics and Arts (ESMA) purpose is to promote communication between the scientific, mathematical and computer science community and the public at large through artistic means. To achieve this goal, ESMA encourages the creation and implementation of projects and works of art (visual, architectural, musical, performing arts, etc.) inspired by mathematics and science in general, without discrimination.

ESMA facilitates the exchanges of information and ideas through its website, publications, seminars and conferences, locally and internationally.

ESMA offers a host of quasi-public intellectual and material properties to all interested in communicating scientific endeavor through art form manifestations. ESMA hopes to help raise awareness and interested in all areas related to its objectives.
