Following our IMAGINARY approach of collaborative and user generated exhibitions (remember the Mathematics of Planet Earth exhibition, which was created through user contributions) we present you the new project “SURFER - visitors create a math exhibition”, where the exhibition is built on site by the visitors from scratch. The project will be implemented in collaboration with the phaeno in Wolfsburg and will be held from September 13 to September 15, 2013 at the phaeno.
The visitors create three-dimensional algebraic geometry in real-time - in a playful way - and thus create a math art exhibition. Colourful forms, generated through simple formulas! The images can be printed on site and this way - step y step - a maths exhibition is created on the walls of the exhibition through the contributions by the visitors only.
We also offer you to participate from home: you can use the SURFER program to create visualizations. The program can be downloaded at www. imaginary.org/program/surfer. The pictures including the respective formula can be sent to surfer@phaeno.de. The most beautiful twenty entries are selected and will be shown in the exhibition!
The deadline for submissions is: September 11, 2013.
This user generated exhibition is part of the “phaenomenale”: http://phaenomenale.com/13/. The event is connected to the “Mathe x anders” exhibition shown at the phaeno.
More details can be found on the event page at imaginary.org/event/surfer-visitors-create-a-maths-exhibition.
For the International Congress of Mathematicians (ICM) 2026 in Philadelphia, we invited mathematicians, artists, and students from around the world to share visually compelling works that showcase the diversity and creativity of contemporary mathematics.

Hosted in MoMath’s new location in New York City, the conference will gather exhibit designers, museum founders, and math outreach innovators from around the globe. The conference will take place from July 18-21, 2026.
Submit your mathematical artwork to be featured in a gallery at the International Congress of Mathematicians (ICM) 2026 in Philadelphia! We invite visually striking works from mathematicians, artists, and students around the world. Selected images will be featured in a gallery showcasing a diverse and contemporary vision of mathematics.
The poster for IDM 2026 is here! It is based on this year’s theme, Mathematics and Hope, and features a circular rosette pattern.
The poster is available in several languages and comes in two versions: a full-color design and a black-and-white version that you can color yourself.
Curious about how machine learning works and how to teach it?
IMAGINARY created a free and open-source online course for (prospective) teachers. It introduces two key topics of AI in a playful way: artificial neural networks and reinforcement learning.
