I had a nice visit from the Bay area: Chris Quartetti spent several hours in my studio, we talked of art and algorithms, of software and artists, books, photography, printers, etc... Chris is part of the AI team, and had visited before with Roman Verostko.
Before he arrived, I had built the o2 back on my network. After he left, I restarted the plotters in their new studio. I learned that adsl will be connected by the end of the week. While everything comes back to life, the art world is taking vacations, and I will use the respite to start programming again. I will finish several pieces in progress, and start new implementations, likely in Python.
I am tempted by APL too, but this will happen only later: I must learn it first --and look at J too. APL being so short and cryptic would be an ideal medium for the series of pieces I want to do, where drawings would be displayed with the code that generated them.
