Cheltenham were also enjoying the annecdotes and logic puzzles in Raymond Smullyan‘s “The Godelian Puzzle book“. I also recommended Douglas Hofstadter’s book “Godel, Escher, Bach…” - well known to those of a certain age, but new to our younger members.

Congratulations to our member Max who has just gained his maths degree and hopes now to be attending more regularly. We also discussed Matt Parker’s latest show (we liked it), Cornu spirals and Phasor diagrams.

After a bit of a break, Tacoma MathsJam is back in force. Had a great time, looking at dominoes, and asking similar questions about rectangular triominoes. In honor of the Shouts authors, someone brought a book they had been gifted but not yet explored.
