Window by Henry Holiday (1839-1927), 1905.

A window inspired by Ancient Greece. The Greek artists, writers and scientists shown in the window reflect the motto carved on the front of the building - TO LITERATURE ARTS AND SCIENCES. The Ancient Greek theme links to the Harris' neo-classical architecture.

Detail - the Mathematicians - Euclid & Archimedes and the Philosophers - Aristotle, Pythagoras & Plato.

 

Henry George Alexander Holiday entered the Royal Academy Schools at the age of 15 and was soon drawn to the ideas, and the artists, of the Pre-Raphaelite movement. He succeeded Edward Burne-Jones as the chief designer for the stained glass firm James Powell & Sons in 1863 and his style had a long-lasting effect on their production into the 1920s. Some of his windows were made by Lavers & Barraud and Heaton, Butler & Bayne, and after eventually ending his association with Powells, he established his own workshop in 1890. From about 1900 he even made his own glass at the workshop. His later work was made at the Glass House, Fulham.

 

Henry Holiday also worked as a painter, illustrator and sculptor, and his broad range of interests led to involvement in the campaign for Irish Home Rule, women's suffrage and dress reform.

 

An Iranian-born mathematician has become the first woman to win a prestigious Fields Medal, widely viewed as the Nobel Prize of mathematics.

 

Maryam Mirzakhani, a Harvard-educated mathematician and professor at Stanford University in California, was one of four winners announced by the International Congress of Mathematicians (ICM) at its conference in Seoul.

 

"This is a great honour. I will be happy if it encourages young female scientists and mathematicians," Professor Mirzakhani said.

 

"I am sure there will be many more women winning this kind of award in coming years."

As an 8-year-old, Maryam Mirzakhani used to tell herself stories about the exploits of a remarkable girl. Every night at bedtime, her heroine would become mayor, travel the world or fulfill some other grand destiny.

 

Today, Mirzakhani — a 37-year-old mathematics professor at Stanford University — still writes elaborate stories in her mind. The high ambitions haven’t changed, but the protagonists have: They are hyperbolic surfaces, moduli spaces and dynamical systems. In a way, she said, mathematics research feels like writing a novel. “There are different characters, and you are getting to know them better,” she said. “Things evolve, and then you look back at a character, and it’s completely different from your first impression.”

The niche overlooking the King's Bath contains a statue of Bladud, the mythical founder of Bath, erected in the seventeenth century (or possibly earlier). The inscription below the statue reads:

Doodle

A doodle is an unfocused or unconscious drawing made while a person's attention is otherwise occupied. Doodles are simple drawings that can have concrete representational meaning or may just be abstract shapes.

 

Stereotypical examples of doodling are found in school notebooks, often in the margins, drawn by students daydreaming or losing interest during class. Other common examples of doodling are produced during long telephone conversations if a pen and paper are available.

 

Popular kinds of doodles include cartoon versions of teachers or companions in a school, famous TV or comic characters, invented fictional beings, landscapes, geometric shapes, patterns and textures.

Etymology[edit]

The word doodle first appeared in the early 17th century to mean a fool or simpleton.[1] It may derive from the German Dudeltopf or Dudeldop, meaning simpleton or noodle (literally "nightcap").[1]

 

The meaning "fool, simpleton" is intended in the song title "Yankee Doodle", originally sung by British colonial troops prior to the American Revolutionary War. This is also the origin of the early eighteenth century verb to doodle, meaning "to swindle or to make a fool of". The modern meaning emerged in the 1930s either from this meaning or from the verb "to dawdle", which since the seventeenth century has had the meaning of wasting time or being lazy.

 

In the movie Mr. Deeds Goes to Town, Mr. Deeds mentions that "doodle" was a word made up to describe scribblings to help a person think. According to the DVD audio commentary track, the word as used in this sense was invented by screenwriter Robert Riskin.[citation needed]

Effects on memory[edit]

According to a study published in the scientific journal Applied Cognitive Psychology, doodling can aid a person's memory by expending just enough energy to keep one from daydreaming, which demands a lot of the brain's processing power, as well as from not paying attention. Thus, it acts as a mediator between the spectrum of thinking too much or thinking too little and helps focus on the current situation. The study was done by Professor Jackie Andrade, of the School of Psychology at the University of Plymouth, who reported that doodlers in her experiment recalled 7.5 pieces of information (out of 16 total) on average, 29% more than the average of 5.8 recalled by the control group made of non-doodlers.[2]

Alexander Pushkin's notebooks are celebrated for their superabundance of marginal doodles, which include sketches of friends' profiles, hands, and feet. These notebooks are regarded as a work of art in their own right. Full editions of Pushkin's doodles have been undertaken on several occasions.[3] Some of Pushkin's doodles were animated by Andrei Khrzhanovsky and Yuriy Norshteyn in the 1987 film My Favorite Time.[4][5]

 

Notable doodlers

 

Nobel laureate (in literature, 1913) poet Rabindranath Tagore made huge number of doodles in his manuscript.[6] Poet and physician John Keats doodled in the margins of his medical notes; other literary doodlers have included Samuel Beckett and Sylvia Plath.[7] Mathematician Stanislaw Ulam developed the Ulam spiral for visualization of prime numbers while doodling during a boring presentation at a mathematics conference.[8] Many American Presidents (including Thomas Jefferson, Ronald Reagan and Bill Clinton) have been known to doodle during meetings.[9]

 

Some doodles and drawings can be found in notebooks of Leonardo da Vinci.

The play by David Auburn, follows Catherine, a young woman who has spent years caring for her brilliant but unstable mathematician father, Robert. Catherine must not only deal with his death but with the arrival of her estranged sister, Claire, and the attentions of Hal, a former math student of her father’s. She struggles to solve the most perplexing problem of all: How much of her father’s madness—or genius—will she inherit.

 

The 2001 Pulitzer Prize winning play is directed by Dr. Maria Enriquez, lecturer in theater, and will feature Penn State Harrisburg students Lexi Fazzolari (Catherine), Stephanie Cosgrove (Claire), Joseph Schwarz (Hal), Josh Gerstenlauer (Robert).

Bletchley Park. Hut 3.

Bletchley Park, Home of the Codebreakers, is one of the cornerstones of British History during WWII. Its story being told the world over through the life and death, of Alan Turing (Mathematician and computer scientist). The most recognised films, Enigma (2001) and The Imitation Game (2014). I found Bletchley Park to be so interesting and fascinating. The more you learn, the more you want to discover. It's one of those places where you just have to visit to get a sense of what was going on in secrecy, during wartimes.

 

The home of British codebreaking and a birthplace of modern information technology. It played a major role in World War Two (WWII), producing secret intelligence which had a direct and profound influence on the outcome of the conflict.

Hut 3's significance is principally historic. It was an important building in the early phase of Bletchley Park, which is renowned for its part in this breaking of the German Enigma code, and in contributing to the Allied victory (especially in the Battle of the Atlantic). It was in Hut 3 that from June 1940 crucial analysis of decrypted German army and air force communications took place.
