Mathematician Jack Douthett and music theorist John Clough wrote the book on music theory and mathematics, so to speak, in their 2008 publication titled, curiously enough, Music Theory and mathematics: Chords, Collections, and Transformations. Douthett visits Santa Fe Complex on Thursday night, August 14 at 6:00 to review the theory of maximally even sets, an algebraic structure initially designed to model musical scales and chords, with an emphasis on visualization.

Santa Fe Complex is located next to the Railyard Art District and within walking distance of the hotels, restaurants and shops at the plaza downtown. We're housed in two facilities, the conference area at 624 Agua Fria and the project space at 632 Agua Fria.

The conference area contains meeting rooms and facilities for short-term use associated with on-going complex projects. The project space houses the great room, where we hold events and offer working facilities for laptop users, coffee lounge and work carrels.

While there is parking at 624 Agua Fria, the Romero Street parking lot is more conveniently located for the 632 facility. Romero St. is an old-style Santa Fe ox-cart road just east of the 624 driveway. Follow it until it opens up to two lanes and turn hard right into the parking lot for 632.

Here's a map to our location, a representative shot showing the Railyard District and a sketchup drawing of the facility at 632: For more information, call 505/216.7562.
