We had an informal gallery-walk a couple of week-ends ago and more than a 100 friends and colleagues showed up at the event. Which was truly gratifying.<br \/>\nI was also given an opportunity to present my work at EduPalooza 2015, a creative arts event at the College of Education a week or so ago. <a href=\"http:\/\/jon-good.com\/\">Jon Good<\/a> recorded my talk and I took a bit of time over the past week to create a video of my comments synched to my slides. You can see this video below. \u00a0I think it is a good introduction to ambigrams, mathematics and also includes some interesting stories about my\u00a0experiences with creating and sharing these with the world at large.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Deep-Play: Creativity in Math &amp;amp; Art through Visual Wordplay\" src=\"https:\/\/player.vimeo.com\/video\/120903314?h=d011906d28&amp;dnt=1&amp;app_id=122963\" width=\"1080\" height=\"675\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"autoplay; fullscreen; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Here are some links if you want to\u00a0learn more about my work in this area.<!--more--><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>My <a href=\"http:\/\/deep-play.com\/creative\/exhibition\/\" target=\"_blank\">webpage about the exhibition<\/a> (with photographs of the gallery and the gallery-walk)<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/deep-play.com\/creative\/art-math\/\" target=\"_blank\">My articles on Math and Visual Wordplay<\/a> (co-authored with Gaurav Bhatnagar) &#8211; now in <a href=\"http:\/\/punyamishra.com\/2015\/10\/03\/ambigrams-math-in-one-embeddable-ebook\/\">one easy to access\u00a0ebook<\/a>!<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/deep-play.com\/creative\/videos\/\" target=\"_blank\">Some videos<\/a> show-casing my explorations in this area, including a clip from the TV show Brain Games, that showcases one of my designs.<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/deep-play.com\/creative\/thanks\/\" target=\"_blank\">An incomplete list of people<\/a> without whose love, support and help none of this would have been possible<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/deep-play.com\/creative\/thanks\/\" target=\"_blank\">Lots of\u00a0ambigram designs<\/a>, arranged by category.<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/deep-play.com\/creative\/mathematical-poetry\/\" target=\"_blank\">Mathematical poetry<\/a> &amp; <a href=\"http:\/\/deep-play.com\/creative\/palindromic-poetry\/\" target=\"_blank\">Palindromic Poetry<\/a> (related to this exhibition and also their own thing)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I have been creating ambigrams for years now&#8230; and I feel extremely lucky that what started as a personal interest and passion\u00a0has\u00a0led to some wonderful experiences and learning.
