Clearlake >> Lake County Campus of Woodland Community College is hosting “Music, Math, and Dental Hygiene” on Wednesday, March 16 in room 603 starting at noon. Hear how a trip to the dentist uncovered some of the whimsical ways that math and music can intersect in our daily lives. Music professor and guitarist Dr. Robert Mathews will perform as he presents a different look at math through the looking glass of music.
What does a fraction sound like? What is Led Zeppelin’s musical math? Do we like to dance because of the music, or the math? Or, how does 3/8 + 3/8 + 2/8 equal a Coldplay song? Professor Mathews will provide answers to these questions and more.
“Math is fun, especially when viewed through the right lens. Too often people find math to be a laborious chore. This music event is exactly what people need to hear to enjoy math and recognize that math is what makes our world work,” said Counselor Pamela Bordisso.
This music event will be free to the public. The campus is located at 15880 Dam Road Extension in Clearlake.
