The purpose of the session will be two fold. Firstly it will assist in building a Canadian Community of those interested in Computational Experimental Mathematics. Secondly the session will be structured so as to encourage the speakers to discuss the scientific and philosophical implications of the way in which they are now doing "experimental mathematics". Speakers are encouraged to talk at a broadly accessible level since participants will come from diverse fields of mathematics. The session will be followed by a workshop on Organic Mathematics also to be held at SFU Harbour Centre. Participants speaking in this workshop include:
