Dr. Michael Friedman

Michael Friedman is a Mathematician, Historian of Mathematics and scholar of Philosophy, and works in the research project Symbolic Material. The focus of his research is on how material, visual and symbolical knowledge interact with each other.

He is currently working on the diverse traditions of Mathematics of the 19th, 20th and 21st centuries. In this context, he looks into the material practices of Mathematics (folding, weaving, braiding, knotting, as well as 3D models) and how symbolical-mathematical knowledge was prompted by them. Another focus of his research are the various scientific instruments, used to visualize, and at the same time to enable mathematical knowledge.
