Abstract
The workshop is based on interdisciplinary and interactive activities that links mathematics and music and presents mathematical and musical ideas through hands-on and multisensorial approaches. Its goals are to encourage maths teachers to inspire students by making maths audible as well as visible, and music teachers to use a geometrical method to foster a new approach towards music theory. Participants learn how the creative discovery process can be used to form an atmosphere of experimentation and play that can positively affect people attitudes about mathematics, music and learning.
