Explore the beauty of mathematics through Escher's artwork. Learn about tessellations, make your own mobius strip, and question the role of symmetry in higher order functions. No calculations involved, only a love for optical illusions, and a desire to know how they work!

What is the geometry behind the incredible mosaic patterns in mosques? How do you fit an infinite plane inside a circle? What is the role of symmetry in art, math, and n-dimensional mobius strips? Explore these questions and more by delving into the life of renowned artist (and secretly mathematician) Escher. The class includes optical illusion paintings, some unusual math, and a few hands on projects to make your own Escher inspired work. No art or math skills required!
