Where is mathematics?


















(Image from MA State Science Frameworks document, page 81)


Oh, I found it.

















(Construction note: I created the regular tetrahedron first and the circles were created using vertices of the tetrahedron (which were on the same face, in the plane shown) as center points of the circles.)


Okay, issues:
  • I do not mean to imply that mathematics is a singular point of 1 dimension where S/T/E are two dimensional; math is the tetrahedron;
  • However, I do not mean to imply that mathematics is in a higher dimension thus possibly implying it is "not for everyone" and "hard"
Geesh, representations are hard.

What are you going to do when you wake up at 5am and can't sleep and aren't interested in being productive?



Give yourself bangs of course.




Photo taken much later. About 7:30am when I got to work. Ugh.

This is a Google map street view screen capture of a bar in Prague.

I'm about 90% sure that this is the bar where I watched Italy win the last World Cup title in 2006.

Funniest moment of the July 4th weekend...

Traffic is being held up by a building dancing in the street to this kid playing Jimi Hendrix on electric guitar.


A cop steps in and the building walks away...
