Join Dr Burkard Polster to hear the secret of soap bubble mathematics.
Kids love blowing bubbles: you can pop them, and you can make a mess! Mathematicians love bubbles too, because they are mathematical oracles: they are guides to beautiful solutions of many tricky problems.
Come and discover the best-kept secrets of soap bubble maths. Learn how to use these secrets, and get some practical advice on doing the impossible: blowing bubbles in bubbles, making cubical bubbles, exploding dodecahedral bubbles, and more.
