Later on, Debora Petrina and Piergiorgio Odifreddi<\/strong>, mathematician and writer, dialogued with the public about GEOMETRY A REGOLA D\u2019ARTE<\/strong>: the Pythagorean theorem, its numerous demonstrations and applications to the visual arts.<\/p>\r\n

Saturday 16th, WORKSHOPS A REGOLA D\u2019ARTE<\/strong> offered to children and adults the opportunity to explore the pleasures of \u2018well crafting\u2019 things under the guidance of leading masters: the Art of Ice Cream<\/strong>, the Art of Moka Coffee and Tea<\/strong>, the Art of Pharmacy<\/strong>, the Art of Paper<\/strong>, and the Art of Piano-making<\/strong>.<\/p>\r\n

The soiree UMORISMO A REGOLA D\u2019ARTE<\/strong> was introduced by Scienze da ridere<\/em>, a video edited by Alberto Brodesco<\/strong>, showing the funniest scenes in film history about science and scientists.<\/p>\r\n

The festival ended up with the dialogue between Maurizio Ferraris<\/strong>, philosopher and writer, and Francesco Tullio Altan<\/strong>, author of comics and satirical sketches, who discussed about the role of humor in daily life: why do we laugh (if we really <\/em>laugh) while listening to funny stories or reading comics?<\/p>\r\n
