A very nice expo currently showcased in Berlin, well worth a visit. https://www.koeniggalerie.com/exhibitions/38455/machine-hallucinations-nature-dreams/ The concept is quite cool and teh result just stunning (I recommend giving the youtube videos a good luck on your TV if you have teh chance)

A nice look back into how JWST came to be and what it's all about. :)

I wonder if this could be used for irregular adaptive grids? From the description: "One application of the diagram is the idea of Voronoi entropy - a mathematical tool for quantitative characterisation of the orderliness of points distributed on a surface - i.e. how visually 'ordered' the tessellation is. I found this idea particularly fascinating especially when thinking about the aperiodicity and the infinite structure of the Penrose tiling. In these visuals, the Voronoi diagram is created using the vertices of the Penrose as its seed points. This creates a new type of Penrose Tiling, clearly different from the classical Penrose, however still exhibiting the fivefold structure of the original, while 'defects' begin to appear at the peripheries."

Another reason why open access should be non-profit (and ideally state-funded...).

The technology that Derek is "following"

... related to the new mathematical proof of emergence of structures in random graphs.

On the topic of asteroid composition :)

Super cool 3D printed material devices!!
