Abstract
Foreword: We would like to dedicate this paper to our friend and colleague, Jim Kaput, who was tragically killed in a road accident shortly before the conference. His work on representational infrastructures pointed to a crucial challenge for mathematics education. By situating current representational systems in their historical context, Jim showed the possibilities for designing alternatives. For Jim, and for us, a key concern was to open up, democratise and make more learnable the complex ideas of mathematics, ideas whose complexity often owes as much to the way they are represented, as to the ideas themselves. This paper is the worse for the lack of Jim's critical comments.
