I don't remember if I mentioned it here, but IBM has just done a free app called something like the Minds of Mathematics or something.  It is based upon the Eames exhibition Mathematica.  It is definitely worth the price of admission, if only for the several Math Peep Shows that Eames did which are really brilliant.  Its kind of hidden in the app, but it is very cool.

Also, I dont remember if I shared the blog post and video I did for IBM about Mathematica.  NYSCI has the original and only complete copy of this incredibly sophisticated and imaginative exhibition.  It originated at the California Museum of Science and Industry (now California Science Center) who cared for it lovingly, toured it, and then sold it to NYSCI in 2006 or so.

Come to ny, and we will be glad to give you a tour of this amazing exhibition.

Here is the blog post and video
