Traditionally\, the term hy percomplex number refers to an element of a finite-dimensional unital alge bra over the field of real numbers. The hypercomplex numbers are stepping stones to learning about Lie groups and group representation theory.\n\nMy aim is to reframe some of the key underlying ideas in more modern mathema tical language by using multilinear algebra and string diagrams as graphic al notation\, while simultaneously keeping intact the original intuition o f generalizing complex numbers. Ultimately\, I hope to motivate further ex ploration by showing several practical applications of hypercomplex number s in computer graphics and data visualization.\n\n\n\n** ==== **\n\nThe ta lk will be moderated by Edmund Harriss.
