Dear Oguzan and List
If convinced that Maths language is needed, then why not taking a
pro-active move and go recruiting teachers from Maths Departments and
impart them our specific requirements?
What about, going beyond business as usual within our like-minded tribes
and our traditional curricula, getting out and arouse interest and
encourage design students in various Design Schools, to explore this new
area through their respective Masters and PhD Design projects, under
combined guidance and supervision from both Maths and Design?
Hoping that, in the meantime, Terry and probably others on this list will
first tell us more on Maths specific for designers!
Best wishes
