My weblog ELECTRON BLUE, which concentrated on science and mathematics, ran from 2004-2008. It is no longer being updated. My current blog, which is more art-related, is here.

Summer Sketch
I finally got some time out on the deck, talking with a friend and listening to birds in the evening. A couple of hours of "real" summer, among the plants and the crickets, with wispy clouds drifting overhead. I'd like some more of this, please. I made two small drawings. This one I colorized in Photoshop, a program I am now learning to use.
A Signmaker does Trigonometry
Meanwhile, I have returned to my most effective method of learning those trigonometric identities. Since I am constantly writing orderly signs for work, I will also do this for math. In the past I calligraphed pages of algebraic patterns and polynomial types, and I have not forgotten too much of it. The same can go for trigonometry, and then I will have my hand-written document as a piece of informative signage. Trigonometric identities join chardonnay wine and mousse with truffles in the same lettering hand.
