Soulver is a pretty cool Mac calculator. I wish I had something to calculate.

My name is Erik Mallinson. I draw pictures, make music, and some other stuff. I like playing the ‘ukulele, riding my scooter around Boston, and playing board games.
Follow me on Twitter (@erima) if you’re into that sort of thing.

I wish this would take the place of the current school ring.
“The ring is comprised of four individual bands that interlock using four pins. The base band (MIT Band) is inscribed with MIT and serves as a receptor for the pins. The other three bands (Life Bands) are inscribed with the schools, degrees, and a range of academic years. Together, the bands encode your academic life at MIT in terms of year, degree, and school (MIT Life-Combo). When the bands are rotated, the inscriptions can be aligned to form one of 85 possible life combinations. But, only when the bands are successfully aligned to your life combination can the pins be inserted to lock the ring together.”

Alice's adventures in algebra: Wonderland solved→
What would Lewis Carroll’s Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland be without the Cheshire Cat, the trial, the Duchess’s baby or the Mad Hatter’s tea party? Look at the original story that the author told Alice Liddell and her two sisters one day during a boat trip near Oxford, though, and you’ll find that these famous characters and scenes are missing from the text.

I found Robert Lang: Idea + square = origami to be inspiring. Though it’s something I have approached before it’s a nice reminder that math, science, creativity, and art are not opposing forces.
