Geometric Science of Information (GSI): Biannual international conference co-organized by Frédéric Barbaresco and Frank Nielsen.
Last updated, February 2025.
GSI music signage: Sonatina for flute and clarinet: I. Pastorale by Jean Cartan,
son of renown Élie Cartan
and brother of
Henri Cartan.
Jean Cartan was a student of Albert
Roussel who was himself a student of Julien Koszul whose grandson
was geometer Jean-Louis Koszul.
If music does not play, we recommend you to press play while browsing this GSI page!

Détail d'une scène dans la lettre 'P' d’une enluminure avec une femme tenant une équerre et
un compas à pointes sèches. Elle est observée par un groupe d'étudiants.
Au Moyen âge, il est inhabituel de voir des femmes représentées comme des professeurs,
en particulier quand les étudiants semblent être des moines. Elle est plus probablement la
personnification de la Géométrie, basée sur le livre célèbre de Martianus Capella de Nuptiss Philologiae
et Mercurii, [5ème c.] une source standard des images allégoriques des sept arts libéraux.
Illustration au début des Eléments d'Euclide, dans la traduction attribuée à
Adelard de Bath.
