Mathematical Makers’ Manifesto

Mathematical Makers’ Manifesto We are mathematical makers. We are makers because we make things, by which we might mean literal objects, such as sculptures, paintings, or fabrics, but our making includes creation of digital images, software, and even performance arts. We are mathematical makers because our creations require mathematical knowledge as a key ingredient. Why do we make these things? Our reasons are diverse, including education, outreach, and experimentation to investigate and create new mathematical understanding; we are also inspired to create works of art and useful crafts. We work to include mathematicians of many different backgrounds in our making, from beginning students to researchers in the farthest branches of mathematics. As the ultimate interdisciplinary subfield of mathematics, mathematical making deserves support from universities, museums, governments, and corporations around the world.
