1. To celebrate Martin Luther King Day, we
constructed a 12-set portrait of Dr. King.
The portrait was assembled by 36 first- and
second-graders, the students of Sharon
Blecher and Gail Burton's "Open Room" at
Eastwood Elementary School in Oberlin, Ohio.
The children were divided into 12 groups of
three. Each group was responsible for one
section of the portrait (the upper left corner,
the upper center portion, the upper right corner,
etc.) To learn more, go to http://www.oberlin.edu/news-info/holding/default/0120200

2. In August 2003, for the 18th International Symposium on Mathematical
Programming, we rendered the Danish mathematician Julius Petersen in
48 complete sets of double nine dominoes. A detail of the portrait
was used for the cover of the Danish magazine "Aktuel Naturvidenskab".

3. In October 2003, we installed a 24-set portrait of mathematician
Dave Roeder at Colorado College.
4. In February 2004, Kurt Anstreicher supervised the construction of
a 12-set portrait of Abraham Lincoln. The portrait was assembled
by school children at Lincoln Elementary School in Iowa City, Iowa.
5. In April 2002, we used 16 complete sets of
real double nine dominoes (ivory colored with
black dots) to create a 40" by 44" portrait
of Marilyn Monroe. The portrait hangs in the
King Building of Oberlin College, just outside
the offices of the Mathematics Department.
