IMPOSSIBLE SHAPES

 

House of Maths Presents: Impossible Shapes 

Join House Of Maths to learn how to bemuse and astonish your friends, teachers and family with holes, flexagons, Mobius strips and other weird shapes that shouldn't even exist at all. Find out how to measure your head, and what's the big deal about pi anyway?

Barney Maunder-Taylor is unique amongst Maths Workshops presenters: he has a double first in maths from Oxford University, is a former Champion of Countdown (series 62), is a previous winner of Bournemouth & Poole Children’s Entertainer Of The Year (Dorset), and still holds the title of Jester of Bournemouth. A former cabaret juggler, Barney now divides his time equally between tutoring maths to University level in Dorset, and presenting maths shows & assemblies and maths workshops in Primary and Lower Secondary schools throughout Dorset, Hampshire and the South. As a teacher of maths Barney is clear, dynamic, innovative and entertaining; as a maths demonstrator and schools visitor Barney delights in sharing his passion, tricks and insights into the hidden maths of our everyday lives.
