Beauty is a life-long pursuit. What's beautiful is also true.

Back when I was teaching math and physics, solving a problem on a blackboard can give a feeling just like seeing a beautiful woman (for me). Here's something that is fairly stark, but at the same time is beautiful, to many people. It has to do with the connectedness of the concepts.

Einstein certainly thought that maths could be beautiful.

^ A lot of us think Einstein was right. True confession- I once thought that I could develop the theory of General Relativity further. Once I took a B Sci in physics (well, long before I got there) I realized I was completely wrong in that belief.  :-[

What's beautiful is also true, indeed.

Ah, the good, old Euler's number! The Asmo's near-invariable answer to "What's your favourite number."

It really isn't - not any more than some other cool mathematicsl constants, but The Asmo likes gently trolling people who ask stupid questions and expect equally-stupid answers. :smilenod:

Still, it's rather a sad reflection on mankind that quite so many faces go quite as blank upon the mention of Euler. Granted, not the most mainstream among the "elite" of the exact sciences, but still. Credit where it's due.

What is art but introspection on the question of beauty.

art is how self absorbed people relieve their inner tensions.

sometimes the results are spectacular. other times they are less transferable.

the succeses far outweigh the failures.
