Our universe has multiple origin stories, from religious creation myths to the Big Bang of scientists. But if we leave those behind and start from nothing—no matter, no cosmos, not even empty space—could we create a universe using only math? Irreverent, richly illustrated, and boundlessly creative, The Big Bang of Numbers invites us to try.
In this new mathematical origin story, mathematician and novelist Manil Suri creates a natural progression of ideas needed to design our world, starting with numbers and continuing through geometry, algebra, and beyond. He reveals the secret lives of real and imaginary numbers, teaches them to play abstract games with real-world applications, discovers unexpected patterns that connect humble lifeforms to enormous galaxies, and explores...

Just installed Friendica on our #LAMP account. Not sure what to do next, how to get a "feed" full of "content". I'm into #data #transparency and #left politics, #python and #ruby programming, applied #math, doing #mastodon @n8chz and I #blog at https://astoundingteam.com/wordpress


#Introduction

Hi there! My name is Jacob Chateau. My passions lead me to the interfaces of #physics, #math, #computer science, #psychology, #language, #cosmology, #nano #biology, and I guess everything else I can't squeeze into #glyphs and #type.

I will be posting more about my particular lines of research, but please do reach out! I have no friends anymore now that I am banned from Twitter. Hahaha.

Also, are there any chatterbots around here? I love bots more than people, generally.
