Alessia > Wow how did I send this message?
Magic smoke fueled wiki rites < Thijs
Alessia > I would love to be James Joyce
Do you know the King Crimson song 'Elephant Talk'? < Thijs

Alessia > Chatter, chit-chat, chit-chat, chit-chat :)) Now I do
> I guess it could be the perfect song for our first hip and fun marketing campaign
Yes. We must embrace the new wave for this new wave of communication technologies. < Thijs Oh I had some more stuff to say but the workshop is starting o.o <
Hey, now heading home again! This morning, the weather was actually really pretty. < Thijs I wanted to share these photos (but they don't really do justice to the pretty weather haha) <

Hey! I spotted 'Mandelbrot' on your coding page. Are you into fractals? O.o < Thijs
Alessia > Hello! Sorry today was a really tough day, I didn't have much time to connect to this amazing platform, but
here I am! I Hope the workshop was good. Thanks for the photos!
> I love fractals! It's one of my favourite subjects. Not just fractals, all non-Euclidean geometry as well,
sacred geometry, the chaos theory, tessellation... Let's say all the metaphysical stuff, symbolic languages,
the motifs of aniconic religions (I always end up on religion and rituals ,Thijs, I'm in a topic prison).
What about you? Did you study fractals as well?
> Now that I have to really think about my knowledge of the subject to make a good impression on this stage,
one milion medieval catholicism flavoured references exploded in my mind, Bible moralisée, illuminated manuscript
> Actually, there are plenty of artists who have tackled the subject, pre and post computer era. I remember
someone even wrote a fractal art manifesto. Absurd how fractals are literally everywhere. The relationship
between certain visual patterns and our conception of aesthetic as human being is wild.
> Beyond that, this is all an excuse because I am actually fascinated by psychedelics and some hallucinatory
states where fractals always appear.
> As The letterboxd buddy I can't really not mention the visual art fractals in Enter the void from that
crazy corrupt mind of Noè 45 minutes of visual trauma. Now that I mentioned it at least one time I can keep
quiet for a while
> fractals look incredibly cool pen plotted, you know? Just saying
I'm sorry to hear that, Alessia. I hope your managing okay. The workshop was very intense, but < Thijs nice. After a 4 week break, I'm happy to be able to talk to everyone like this before delving deep into the next SI. And talking about delving deep, you're treating me to a lot of Babble! Yay! This is great news! My love for them runs infinitely deep, naturally (hehe). In fact, I did my < mathematics bachelor thesis on tesselations! Specifically on Wang tiles and their 3-dimensional analogues, and discuss a particular set of tiles resp. cubes that produces only nonperiodic tesselations. Mind-boggling, really. I'd be happy to share it with you if you're interested (and if your ever expanding list of things to read allows for it, haha) Thank you for sharing these links. I'm actually well aware of your Letterboxd review of Enter the Void, < haha. The relation with human aesthetics is wild indeed. And it touches on some paradoxical infinity we are so enthralled by, that seems to be so central to the human experience, yet we cannot wrap our heads around it.
