Here’s a narrative on the progress of my project. As I’m sure many of you already know, my interest is in somehow displaying jazz album cover art, as in a visualization, or a in some kind of new way of seeing […]

OK, it’s hard for me to admit this, but in going through Birnbaum’s post on Regular Expressions, my eyes quickly glazed over and he lost me in about three paragraphs. This is exactly the sort of thing I have been […]
