Making music with mathematics
Published: 26 June 2006
Find out how you can turn music into maths and maths into melodies at a
free public lecture at The University of Queensland next week.
UQ Mathematics Senior Lecturer Dr Michael Bulmer will talk about Making
Music with Mathematics at 7pm on Thursday, July 6 in Room 222, Parnell
Building, St Lucia campus.
Dr Bulmer will show how the structure of music, and what makes it worth
listening to, can be examined using a mathematical approach. He will
apply the ideas behind fractal images to analyse music and will
demonstrate how a similar principle, fractal noise, can be used to
compose mathematical music.
This easy-to-understand public lecture is open to all and a light supper
will be served at 8pm. Please RSVP to Ms Helen Grey on 07 3365 2424 or
hg@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx for catering. Visit

Dr Michael Bulmer is a Senior Lecturer in Mathematics and Statistics
with a passion for maths, music and education. He has been
vice-president of the Queensland Association of Mathematics Teachers
since 2001 and last year won an Australian Award for University Teaching
in recognition of his work in promoting student learning.
