News

It has been almost 10 years since I last posted here, and I'm not sure if this has a chance of reaching anybody. But here are a few news items that may be of interest.

About two years ago, I started a project to create various mathematics-related artworks to decorate the new offices of G-Research in London. Some of the outputs have been gathered on Behance here. The highlight is probably a bronze sculpture of Alexander's horned sphere, about 60cm in diameter.

More recently, I started experimenting with cellular automata, running some on a home-made 196x196 pixel LED screen. A version also appeared at the Arcade, Outernet, London.

The above algorithm has been turned into an Android app, and I'm looking for testers. If you're interested, send an email to [cellular-worlds at proton.me] including the email you used to log into Google Play, and I'll be able to add you to the closed alpha testing. Hopefully it should be released to everyone in a few weeks. The two gifs below provide a taster of the kind of animations it can produce.
