Elegiac, a hymn to a now seemingly lost genre, a lament for
a future now past. I shed a tear, for the music, and for me.

I like the outtake track "Cutting Remarks" on the Cylob
site. When I was young there used to be an advert at the
local cinema for a hairdressers called "Cutting Remarks",
and the voice-over chap would say it in a really funny way
and we'd all laugh "Cutting Remarks".... then we'd say it to
each other, in that voice, if someone said something
scathing or "cutting". That's probably why I like this track
so much.

Haha wow! What are you learning haskell for?

I don't program too much any more. I do lots of math,
though. If I program, it's in some super lazy thing like
python.

Hope you're well too, Sam.

for fun I guess! I've been interested in functional
programming for a while and it makes a nice change from my
day job. I don't have any real uses for it, but it's
interesting enough, and the book I'm using (learn you a
haskell) is awesome. python's great, seems like it's quite
popular for academic stuff at the moment.

I'm doing well, thanks. 8)

Awesome.

There are some funny environments to do live music in
haskell. One example is tidal, and here's a random youtube clip
I took from that page. (There were some other examples but
I'm not finding them?)

I keep telling myself I'll make some cool synthesizer
package, but years keep passing and I keep not doing it.

Yeah, academics like python. The language is nice and easy
(lots of schools are using it for intro classes), it has
good matrix support (which leads to good scientific
support), and ipython notebooks are a nice way to keep track
of stuff. People are always mad that the language is slow,
and there is lots of stuff about that all the time (to the
point that julia also targets ipython notebooks and is
gaining lots of momentum).

Believe it or not, jAroen just sent me a video link with
some music analysis he cooked up in a few hours in java =)

ipython+numpy+scipy is great. was using it to model some
collision detection under continuous rotation. i too have
been learning haskell (well got up to the monad portion of
learn you a haskell and decided to go back to math
foundations; been working through awodey on category theory)

looks good, rather more geared towards analysis and number
theory. i spent more time focusing on formal logic in the
form of formal language theory+proof theory+model theory. (i
actually was pretty ignorant of the term 'model theory' and
didn't realize a lot of the big results of the 20th century
were more or less model theory problems (godel,
church-turing)).

you heard of this new thing?

it's open sourced so free to read (i am told to skip the
introduction and go straight to chapter 1, just fyi)--
haven't cracked it open though.

Nice. I remember that back in the day you were interested
in n-body simulations? Those have nice equilibria (lagrange
points are already pretty cool).

Back in the day I took lots of logic classes and was
interested in foundations. But in the last 7 or so years
I've been doing various forms of analysis (specifically
functional and convex analysis). I really like it and don't
mind that I use the axiom of choice now and then...

A+ for kolmogorov. Have you seen his crazy "superposition theorem"?

Kolmogorov used to work in logic but didn't pursue it much
beyond his youth, though sometimes he had students work in
it, for instance Martin-Löf who did foundational work in
type theory, and leonid levin who did foundations of CS.

(kolmogorov is one of my favorite mathematicians.)

Do you follow the foundations of math mailing list? It has lots of good
discussions and you can regularly see the old school
heavy-hitters showing up.

I was also interested in the voevodsky homotopy type theory
stuff when it first showed up, but some further googling
found lots of mathematicians very annoyed with it (including
annoyance on the FoM mailing list above).

thanks for the pointer, just signed up (awaiting mod
approval). so are you a math prof then? the simulation stuff
i've worked on uses minkowski addition, maybe that's
familiar from convex analysis.

i can't say anything about that kolmogorov thingy (but
kolmogorov complexity looks really interesting, i *think* it
builds on shannon information theory which is super
important for modern digital communication i would recommend
just giving the first little bit of his paper a go)

my understanding of homotopy type theory is that it's an
attempt to shift math towards type theory foundations
(instead of the old-school set theory) because of the
'curry-howard correspondence' which says that proofs and
computer programs are equivalent.
