The history of mathematics in the form of the cult infographics of the 60s for iPad
Mathematics is an integral part of IBM technological innovation. The demand for on-line analysis of information gathered from a variety of sensors and from other Big Data sources is constantly growing, and IBM mathematicians are actively working on numerous applied tasks - from creating Watson computer software to astrophysical research, weather forecasting, genome sequencing, and using analytics to reduce traffic congestion and energy optimization in cities around the world.
Highlighting the outstanding role of mathematics and its influence on the development of the world, IBM released an iPad application called Minds of Modern Mathematics that digitally reproduces the famous 15-meter monumental graphic composition on the history of this science, created by the matrimonial design team of Charles and Ray Eames (Charles and Ray Eames) and shown at the 1964 World's Fair in New York.
The application is an interactive digital "tutorial" for schoolchildren, students, teachers and anyone interested in the history of science and technology. Depicting the history of mathematical science in the form of a timeline, beginning in 1000 AD and until the 60s of the 20th century, the application vividly illustrates how mathematics has perfected the fine arts, music, architecture, and other sciences over the centuries.

Presented in the monumental installation of the Imz spouses, this vivid chronology of mathematics development was part of the “Mathematica: A World of Numbers… and Beyond” exposition of the IBM booth at the World Exhibition, which became a landmark in the history of IBM itself.
The application contains over 500 biographies, descriptions of scientific discoveries and photographs of the installation exhibits.
And the IBM Mathematics Peep Show application section presents a series of short two-minute animated films, also made by Imz spouses who introduce mathematical concepts from the exponent (exponent) to the method of measuring the size of the Earth by the ancient Greeks.
A large-scale depiction of the chronology of the development of mathematics is also currently being demonstrated at the New York Science Gallery ( New York Hall of Science ) and the Museum of Science ( Boston ), being an excellent example of a vivid and interactive "educational exhibit" in the vision of IBM and designers imz.
From the very first days of their joint work, IBM and the Imz spouses sought to popularize mathematics and the natural sciences and tried to make them accessible to all. The monumental composition “Mathematica: A World of Numbers ... and Beyond” (approximately 280 square meters) inspired an entire generation to awaken interest in the study of the natural sciences, mathematics and technology. Having developed the Minds of Modern Mathematics application, IBM expects that it will find wide application not only in school classes, but also far beyond them, stimulating young people's interest in education and careers in the fields of science, technology, engineering and, of course, mathematics.
