In his new book, Blueprints, Marcus du Sautoy traces the connections between mathematics and art and the ways in which creatives use numbers to underpin their work – unconsciously or otherwise. From the earliest stone circles to the unique architecture of Zaha Hadid, du Sautoy shows us that there are blueprints everywhere and how logic and aesthetics are intrinsically intermingled.

The Creativity Code on Start The Week

On Essential Classics on BBC Radio 3 I explored my cultural inspirations with Suzy Klein to coincide with publication of my new book The Creativity Code. First up: Theatre. My choice: Anything for a Quiet Life by Complicite. (18 March 2019)

My Cultural Inspirations: Theatre

In the second episode of my Cultural Inspirations on Essential Classics on BBC Radio 3 I turn to literature. My choice is Borges' Library of Babel. The short story is used in my book The Creativity Code to explore the role of making choices in creativity. (19 March 2019)

Cultural Inspirations: Literature

My third cultural inspiration on BBC Radio 3's Essential Classics comes from the contemporary art world. It's 4900 Farben by Gerhard Richter. In my new book The Creativity Code I talk about the use of randomness in AI to give algorithms a sense of agency. But isn't that just cheating? (20 March 2019)

Cultural Inspirations: Art

In the fourth of my cultural inspirations for BBC Radio 3's Essential Classics I turn to Architecture. My choice is The Alhambra in Granada, a palace celebrating the world of symmetry. In The Creativity Code I discuss whether AI could make a mathematical breakthrough like my discovery of a new symmetrical object in high dimensional space. Can AI create maths?

Cultural Inspirations: Architecture

In the fifth of my cultural inspirations for BBC Radio 3 Essential Classics I turn to music and my choice is Messiaen's Turangalila Symphony. In my book The Creativity Code I talk about the algorithmic nature of music which might make it susceptible to AI.

Cultural Inspirations: Music

Discussion about the concert I have curated and will be introducing with the Oxford Philharmonic featuring Debussy, Stravinsky and Bartok. The concert explores new scales that emerged in the 20th century including the octatonic scale. Interview on BBC Radio 3's In Tune on 9 October 2019.
