To Wayne:
I'm in southwest Missouri, which isn't quite convenient to southern Illinois;
however, if you do get something going in your area, I might be open to
making some kinds of connections. My specific field of interest at the moment
is in using a GPL-licensed programming
language . . .
. . . to produce math-based artworks:
If possible, I'd like my activities to get into the educational environment and
help combat the destructively artificial barriers that too many people think
still exist between art and mathematics.
If any of this looks good to any of your allies, send me a
message.
Best of luck
Joel
