Scott Rickard set out to engineer the
ugliest possible piece of music, devoid of any pattern, using a mathematical
concept known as the Golomb ruler. At TEDxMIA, he shares the math behind
musical beauty (and its opposite).
Scott Rickard has degrees in Mathematics, Computer Science, and Electrical Engineering from M.I.T. and MA and PhD degrees in Applied and Computational Mathematics from Princeton University. At University College Dublin, he founded the Complex & Adaptive Systems Laboratory, where biologists, geologists, mathematicians, computer scientists, social scientists and economists work on problems which matter to people. He is passionate about mathematics, music and educating the next generation of scientists and mathematicians.
