Person Curves Wolfram|Alpha has a whole collection of line art portraits constructed from complex parametric functions. This is one of the greatest uses of mathematics I have ever come across. This discussion thread suggests that it&#8217;s probably done by computers rather than bored grad students (I mean, just look at the equation to get 2pac!!) But the fact remains: This exists, and it is wonderful. Who&#8217;s your favorite?

Wolfram|Alpha has a whole collection of line art portraits constructed from complex parametric functions. This is one of the greatest uses of mathematics I have ever come across. This discussion thread suggests that it’s probably done by computers rather than bored grad students (I mean, just look at the equation to get 2pac!!)

I do not mind that you are a girl, but the main thing is that you yourself do not mind. There is no reason for it.
A letter from Einstein, born on this day in 1879, to a little girl who wanted to be a scientist but was concerned that her gender held her back. (via explore-blog)

Do not pay any mind to those who tell you that “you can’t”. This includes yourself.

Did you see those amazing colorized portraits of Tesla, Einstein and Darwin the other day? Here&#8217;s a few more, featuring a more light-hearted shot of Al, my main man Richard Feynman, and Yuri Gagarin. Mads Madsen, the artist behind those retouched historical photos (who is only 18 years old, by the way &#8230; you rock, dude), has a full gallery for your enjoyment here. Trust me when I say &#8220;enter at your own risk&#8221; &#8230; from Civil War generals to presidents to movie stars, it&#8217;s a sure way to lose yourself for an hour or three.
