In progress: Godel, Escher, Bach: An Eternal Golden Braid. I believe in coincidence but am grateful for serendipity. I ran into this in the visual literacy (why??) collection while shelving at the library and fell in love at first page. The thesis, tantalizingly alluded to in the introduction: that consciousness is the product of "strange loops" that create self-awareness in a way that is analogous (here's the cool part) to the images of M.C. Escher. Aha. That's why it was in vis lit. And I think I've just detected a theme in my interests. Visual understanding?
Speaking of which, this is fantastic: Visual Complexity

O.o

PHP code generates OSC messages for Max via Drupal using Javascript and Ajax in HTML. Shit.

...was the last draft I had saved before I got, well, distracted and forgot about all this. I have since decided I rather dislike web programming. Oh well. On to other things, I suppose.

In any case, hello. Here I go again?
