Marcus du Sautoy: Creativity by Numbers

Some brains are creative while others are more inclined towards mathematics and logic, and the two shall never overlap - right? Wrong, according to mathematician, broadcaster, and prolific author Marcus du Santoy, whose new book, Blueprints, investigates the mathematical concepts underpinning everything from painting and poetry to the music of Mozart and the defining contemporary architecture of Zaha Hadid. Join him today as he discusses new ways of understanding creativity. Chaired by Suzy Glass.
