Fascinating network problem in Calgary city centre. Walkways interconnect buildings from second floor. All stores and services are inside. Foot traffic low on outside streets. Busy inside. #mathsedau #aamtontour ⁦@aamtinc⁩ ⁦@MathsNSW⁩

‘Mathletes Assemble’ for the final #NCTMCHI24 keynote given by Howie Hua. Hard to snap a selfie when the person ran wildly around the auditorium seeking audience participation. I waved my hand, represented #aamtontour #mathsedau ⁦@aamtinc⁩ to give him an answer!!

‘Cafe Culture’ with coffee pouring in action. Never seen a place like this before with 5 levels of dedicated coffee tasting, brewing, buying and fresh baked buns. Yum. Amazing spiral 🌀 incline up, reminding me of the Golden Ratio. #aamtontour #mathsedau ⁦@aamtinc⁩
