Magical Mathematics

Ben Sparks

Tuesday: 12 noon and 2 pm (both fully booked for school parties)

Magic and maths have gone together for hundreds of years. The reasoning behind many magic effects is inherently mathematical and logical, and mathematical tools can reveal the secrets if you’re brave enough to use them.

Ben works part time with the Advanced Maths Support Programme (AMSP), as a speaker, tutor and co-ordinator, and part time as a freelance maths enrichment speaker around the UK and the rest of the world. He regularly gives talks and workshops to schools and conferences around the country on a range of mathematical subjects.
