Gathering For Gardner (G4G) - Math and Magic

SFUSD Furlough Day - March 16, 2012

For the past 20 years some of the most remarkable minds meet in Atlanta, GA at the G4G conference to honor Martin Gartner and to share mathematical puzzles and ideas that most mathematicians consider on the popular side of math and most magicians consider on the math side of magic.

For one day, we, too, will play with puzzles that were created mostly by G4G mathematicians and magicians from around the world. We will gradually move from simple to difficult ones. These puzzles and games are designed to develop abstract thinking and creativity. You will learn not only to think outside the box, but also to think far away from the box!

Led by Thane Plambeck Ph.D., a founder of numerous high-tech startups, as well as being the chief scientist at VeriSign. Thane earned his PhD at Stanford University. He is one of the lead organizers of the G4G conference.
