Sorry for the relative blog silence recently. Here’s what I’ve been doing lately:
- Buying stuff at the local library book sale last weekend. Old maths textbooks FTW!
- Puzzling over how to approximate spirals with Bézier curves. Or otherwise thinking of a way to draw them.
- Having lunch with Gary. He actually exists in real life!
- Rediscovering Doctor Who.
- Studying the Periodic Table of the Elements.
Raph Levien wrote a drawing program that used spirals instead of beziers as the interactive primitive. I believe it converted to beziers underneath, though.
