Context Free is "an environment for editing and rendering [sets of non-deterministic rules to produce images]".

Haven't downloaded it yet, but there are some very pretty pictures here--and I like the underlying concept. (CS language geeks will no doubt like it even more.) Think "roll-your-own fractals".

Current Music: Gabriel, Peter - Secret World Live (Disc 1) - Shaking The Tree

I recently ran across this beautiful LJ posting courtesy of

rosefox.

I never really quite had the experience described here--not exactly. But I was extremely myopic for about 25 years, and while the strangeness of being able to see when I wake up in the morning is fading, in a way it still feels a little bit wrong somehow...and I may always miss, on some level, the ability to retreat into fuzziness by taking my glasses off or my contacts out.

(The sardonic part of me, of course, says "Look on the bright side: in 10-15 years you'll probably start going presbyopic and then you'll get some of your fuzziness back--in reverse.")
