'The City of Cape Town is heading for disaster and is already in deep crisis if one cares to look close enough. The recent proliferation of public construction, public squares and public housing along the N2 towards the airport is little more than a mirage compared with the direction of more underlying trends. Cape Town's grim future is born out of the confluence of the globalised economic and ecological collapse that is fast becoming the defining feature of the twenty-first century. It is manifested most starkly in the dire situation that faces the majority of the city's residents, who are excluded from the formal economy and must rely on substandard public services and their own makeshift shelters. The scenario is serious enough to draw everyone's attention but should be set against the broader issues of long-term economic resilience and environmental sustainability to achieve a low-carbon society - so we have our work cut out for us. The purpose of this volume is to demystify these challenges and present readers with a creative portfolio of thinking, practice and strong vision to show that we can find alternatives - and, moreover, that these alternatives are already emerging in (marginal) sections of the state, civil society and the business sectors.'--Introd.

An amusing, vibrant, informative theatre production based on mathematics concepts for both school learners and the general public. The 60-minute show brings maths to life through theatre, humor, music, dance, with the hope of inspiring learners and the general public to consider the importance of maths in their everyday lives. It’s in our music, our technology, our art, our homes, and even in our nature. ‘PASCAL’ is part of an educational outreach program of PHEPHINKA TEHATRE, a theatre company that creates educational and issue-based theatre. ‘PASCAL’ reveals how maths is everywhere in our world. This Mathematics Theatre project is integrally linked to the Department of Education’s Curriculum and Assessment Policy Statement (CAPS) specific aims and skills. Links to CAPS on this project will also give the learners the opportunity to develop: a spirit of curiosity and a love of Mathematics; an appreciation for the beauty and elegance of Mathematics; a critical awareness of how mathematical relationships are used in social, environmental, cultural and economic relations; the correct use of the language of mathematics; number vocabulary, number concept and calculation and application skills, listening, communication and problem solving skills. Join us at The STABLE THEATRE on the 5th July 2014 at 13h00 as we raise awareness about the importance of maths and celebrate the power of Mathematics.
