| Abstract | Ethnomathematics is a new domain studying mathematical structures in particular activities of traditional societies. The main difficulty in this approach is to establish a link between formal structures, studied « in laboratory », and mental representations of native people, as they can be observed during fieldworks. We describe these difficulties in different situations: visual arts, music, divination. In the latter case, we present the results of fieldworks done in Madagascar where mathematical mental representations of native people have been discovered |

| Title | Is the evolution of jazz described by a log periodic law? |
| Author | BRISSAUD Ivan |
| Keywords | Fractals, Jazz, Log periodicity law, Temporal tree structure |
| Topics | Fractal, Modelling, Music, Time Series, Trees |
| Abstract | The evolution of different phenomena in biology, society, economy, human development. can be described by series of cycles and leaps. Many authors adjust a log periodic behavior to these chronologies. Here, we suggest applying such a model to the Jazz steps (Archaic Jazz, New Orleans, Jazz Hot, Swing.). In this case we show an acceleration of the cycles up to a critical time at the middle of the fifties (so called "Cool Jazz" epoch) before a deceleration corresponding to an increasing influence of African, South American. musics over the Jazz. We find a significant agreement between the model and the data. In conclusion a question remains: is a chronology of historical evolution predictable? |

| Title | Temporal Semiotic Units |
| Author | FAVORY Jean |

| Topic | Music |
| Abstract | Temporal Semiotic Units are sound fragments that, even out of their musical context, have a temporal signification due to their morphological organization. |

| Title | Mathematics and literature: an article with some mathematics and literature |
| Author | AUDIN Michèle |
| Keywords | Aragon, Arnault Daniel, Chess board, Constraint, Group, Latin square, Magic square, Oulipo, Perec Georges, Queneau Raymond, Roubaud Jacques, Sextine |
| Topics | Literature, Modelling |
| Abstract | We remind the readers of several ways writers have used mathematical constraints and structures, from the Middle Ages to the present times. Then, from the structure of a group with four elements, we produce a text. |
