Botanica Mathematica workshop
From the Curator of Museum Services at the University of Dundee :
Workshop – Sunday 18 June – 2pm to 4.30pm
Come and make your own Binary Bonsai with Botanica Mathematica artist Madeleine Shepherd. Take it home or contribute it to the growing woolly herbarium that is on display in the D’Arcy Thompson Zoology Museum. Madeleine will give a short introduction to the project and the ideas behind its creation and then we’ll have fun with fibre generating trees and flowers by applying some simple rules.
Yarn and some tools will be provided by Dundee’s own independent yarn store, Fluph. Please bring your own set of double-pointed needles so if you don’t finish your Binary Bonsai at the workshop you’ll be able to take it home.
Attendance at the workshop is free but places must be booked in advance here.

The suspected perpetrator in an explosion that happened on Thursday afternoon in east China’s Xuzhou City was among the eight people killed in the incident, police said on Friday.
Police identified the suspect as a 22-year-old man surnamed Xu, a local resident of Quanshan District, Xuzhou of Jiangsu Province.
Police said they have collected evidence and completed DNA matching tests to prove Xu’s identity.
Police have found materials for making explosives in Xu’s rental apartment, where there are words “death” and “killing” on the wall.
Police said Xu had been suspended from school after he was diagnosed with “vegetative nervous function disturbances.” He then found work and lived in the rented apartment.
The explosion left eight people dead, including Xu, and 65 others injured. Sources with the hospitals said Friday that among the eight severely injured, four have escaped life-threatening danger.
The blast occurred around 4:48 p.m. Thursday near the gate of a kindergarten in Fengxian County.
