Field Notes
Completed experiments, implementations, and reflections around ongoing projects.
Sketch Notes
Early ideas, unfinished paths, and mathematical-music questions I am still following.
Lab Notes
Long-form explorations of mathematical and musical concepts, structures, and ideas.
Two years leading to FigurateNum v3 visualizations in the complex plane
A short personal note on the visualization layer of FigurateNum v3, where figurate numbers enter the complex plane through domain coloring.
Perfectoid Rings Breakdance in Sonic Pi?
I move through perfectoid rings, p-adic towers, and the Frobenius map, wondering if any of it could ever end up in Sonic Pi’s sandbox.
Do Group Actions Define Regular Polytopes and Polytypes in Type Systems?
I introduce an analogy between transitive group actions on flags of polytopes and type systems. This speculative concept aims to offer a naive way of understanding and classifying types through symmetry.
Gamma Functions for Figurate Numbers
I plant a question motivated by generalizing the GCD to varieties and inspired by Euler's interpolation: Does there exist a function attached to each figurate number that extends it to continuous domains, analogous to how the Gamma function extends the factorial?
Counting a Figurate Property in Cayley–Dickson Algebras
A naive question about Cayley-Dickson algebras, enumerated by a figurate number via type systems, and how that question naturally incorporates itself into other algebraic structures and particularities.
