Math Art - Draft (Juyoung & Nancy)

Juyoung and I have chosen to base our Math Art assignment on the life and works of Zhang Heng (78-139 AD). 

We are going present this in the form of an animated drawing video with a voiceover, where we will go over his life while also incorporating some mathematical ideas he contributed to. 

Some resources we found were: 

Cammann, S. (1960). The Evolution of Magic Squares in China. Journal of the American Oriental Society, 80(2), 116. https://doi.org/10.2307/595587
