Doug Norton also is a song-writer and often has participated in music activities at the Bridges Math-Art Conferences. Here is a sample of his math-art lyrics:
Take A Chance On Me by Doug Norton
If you change your mind and want two combined,
Don’t do Math alone:
Join the Math Art zone.
If you do Art, let me know, spread some Math around.
If you’ve got no place to go with an upper bound,
Math or Art alone feeling monotone?
Do as we condone:
Join the Math Art zone.
Gonna do our very best and it ain’t no lie;
Gotta do as we suggest: try some e and pi.
Take a chance and see
Math and Artistry.
Modular toroids and bisymmetric hendecahedra,
Vibrating wallpaper, windmills and compound parallelohedra.
You know we’ve got
Cheesegraters and the Parthenon, projections with a gnomon:
It’s magic!
Anamorphosis and Möbius, integers that are mysterious:
But by now you know
It’s a dynamo!
Ba ba ba ba baa, ba ba ba ba baa
Don’t do Math alone:
Ba ba ba ba baa ba baa, ba ba ba ba baa
Don’t do STEM, do STEAM;
Join the Math Art team!
Take a chance and see …
