The research project explores the synthesis of knowledge fragments concerning the experience of mathematical ideas in action with the aim to represent and narrate them anew toward creating virtual and actual moves within the city scape. These knowledge fragments belong to nets of qualitative data that present cultural images of mathematical ideas in varied practices (e.g. arts, crafts, leisure, professions etc). The project ‘street mathematics’ studies spatial narrative as a boundary object.
