Lament

Mad science week at CNS, August 25-29, 2008, has come and gone. As a result we have a small program that you can also use to produce MIDI output from tracking an object on the screen, either by mouse or by webcam. Development is still very much in progress, but if you install the following dependencies there's a good chance you can get some reliable output. Results may vary, especially for linux kernels not built for real-time audio processing.

Caltech Chamber Music Program

For three of my four years at Caltech I played in small chamber groups, and the school was awesome enough to record each performance. True, the recordings are amateur as well as the performance, but who knows, maybe you'll enjoy listening to them after all.

Fluid Dynamics

I got to help start this a cappella group at Caltech, and it was amazing. Here's a video of us in our first year, performing "I Want You Back" for the first time ever. Even though parts of it fell apart, the crowd went crazy, and we had a great time as a result.

Apparent Motion - I didn't make this, although I wish I had...

If I were a Springer-Verlag Graduate Text in Mathematics, I would be Frank Warner's Foundations of Differentiable Manifolds and Lie Groups.

I give a clear, detailed, and careful development of the basic facts on manifold theory and Lie Groups. I include differentiable manifolds, tensors and differentiable forms. Lie groups and homogenous spaces, integration on manifolds, and in addition provide a proof of the de Rham theorem via sheaf cohomology theory, and develop the local theory of elliptic operators culminating in a proof of the Hodge theorem. Those interested in any of the diverse areas of mathematics requiring the notion of a differentiable manifold will find me extremely useful.
