Statement
I like to solve problems with mathematics. Art gives me the perfect excuse and outlet to do this. Perhaps it's part of the cogitative process to analyze with numbers. I see behind art - ratios, formulas, tessellations and transformations. With computer art those pages of calculations are hidden though I wish to interact with them. I've embarked on a problem that intrigues me, that of projective geometry. I'm gathering my tools. My goals are far off with many diversions between. But I don't worry because the road is more important than the destination. In 2001, CJ Fearnley and I started to read Coxeter's Geometry, independently for different objectives, together tackling the problems. We haven't finished yet.
