DESCRIPTION:A few years ago Norman Gilbreath gave a lecture at the Academy
  of Magical Arts in Hollywood\, California and everything in the lecture w
 as based on mathematics. The lecture was called "Not a Sleight in Sight" a
 nd the very unusual applications of mathematics will be fully explained in
  this talk. The focus of the lecture will be on the significant impact tha
 t notation can have upon the creative process.\n\nWhile at U.C.L.A. Mr. Gi
 lbreath specialized in the logical foundations of mathematics under Profes
 sor C.C. Chang\, who studied under Alfred Tarski. Mr. Gilbreath has presen
 ted many of these insights at the RAND corporation\, where he is an alumni
  member.
