Emily says: I’m a composer. I write music and I like to take inspiration for my music from mathematics. Recently I have been collaborating with mathematician Lasse Rempe-Gillen at the University of Liverpool and I will talk about how I created musical works ‘Leviathan’ and ‘Orbits’ in response to Lasse’s own current research in dynamical systems. The talk will feature video footage of musical performances by virtuoso Paris-based duo scapegoat and conversations with Lasse about the mathematics behind the music.
