DESCRIPTION:Title: <a href="https://researchseminars.org/talk/CompMath/6/"
 >Communicating relational thinking</a>\nby Priyaa Varshinee Srinivasan (Ta
 llinn University of Technology) as part of Relatorium seminar\n\n\nAbstrac
 t\nI love math\, I love people and I am interested in how they both intera
 ct.  While being a postdoctoral fellow at the Topos Institute\,  a team of
  four including me published an online illustrated live-book on category t
 heory -- which we termed as relational thinking for the purposes of this b
 ook -- intended for a general STEM-oriented audience. We used story-tellin
 g and leaned in on technology instead of formal symbols to communicate cat
 egory theory. \n\nIn this talk\, I will outline the storyline of this book
  and also touch on the technology that made this book happen. This project
  is joint work with Paul Dancstep\, Brendan Fong\, Angeline Aguinaldo\, Ev
 an Patterson and many others behind the scenes. \n\nThe book is available 
 at https://toposinstitute.github.io/RelationalThinking-Book/cover.html\n
