New Data Set

Paul Ginsparg recently provided me with a truly awesome data-set concerning the mathematics papers at the arXiv.org.  I am thinking of ways to put it to use in making new mathematics illustrations and hopefully improving on my previous project.

Happy Pi Day!

It’s sort of confusing how many possible Pi Days there are.

A Map of Math?

There has been some recent discussion at Reddit of an attempt I made to turn some data from arXiv.0rg into a visualization of the relationships between research areas in mathematics.  I was never completely pleased with the dataset. 

AMS Council Meeting

I wrote a few articles stemming from my experiences reporting on the AMS‘s graduate student blog to the AMS Council Meeting. I had a bit of writer’s block so it took longer to write them than I expected it would. Here they are:

1. AMS Council Meeting – Part 1
2. AMS Council Meeting – Part 2
3. AMS Council Meeting – Part 3
