May 23rd 2016: Entropy Day at University of Sheffield

I learned about entropy as part of my undergraduate Physics education but it turns out that the concept of entropy turns up in many fields including linguistics, themodynamics, information theory, chemistry and artificial intelligence. As part of Sheffield's Open Data Science Initiative, computer scientist, Neil Lawrence, has teamed up with linguist, Dagmar Divjak, to organise a cross-faculty discussion meeting on the subject of entropy. For more details on the day's events, and to register, see http://opendsi.cc/ed2016/program I wasted a little time producing the above logo for the event using Mathematica. You should call it entropy, for two reasons.
