Mathematica Hermeneutica

A conversation with a friend, made me clarify what I had in mind for a long time.

He told me he had been thinking of math being hermeneutic.

EEgrad: good point
EEgrad: makes all our efforts look ridiculous
EEgrad: math as fuzzy as politics
Mathgrad: exactly
EEgrad: I m reaching to that conclusion too
EEgrad: that pureness of childhood math
EEgrad: platonic math and physics are gone
Mathgrad : Those disciplined horrible bishops of Math, they are no good
EEgrad: they are memorizing the heritage
EEgrad: they are the graves of formulas

Take a sad song and make it better

You look like Thom Yorke.

Driving back to the home town, all the way you think of the sweetheart in the trunk. It’s such a pity you cannot listen to her voice.

You switch to black and sit on a bench in Pioneer square and put your fingers on her strings; square would be empty. I’d ask if you know you look like Thom Yorke.

You’d tell how hard it is to be a song writer. People don’t like empty squares. You sit on a bench and make her sing all night long till dawn comes.

Thom Yorke looks like you.
