Interesting quote from "Robicheaux: A Novel"
"The reinvention of this bunch as Elizabethan men of honor probably would have made Shakespeare and Christopher Marlowe sick."

Interesting quote from "Prime Obsession: Bernhard Riemann and the Greatest Unsolved Problem in Mathematics"
"So yes, it seems that the non-trivial zeros of the zeta function and the eigenvalues of random Hermitian matrices are related in some way. This raises a rather large question, a question that has been hanging in the air ever since that encounter in Fuld Hall in 1972. The non-trivial zeros of Riemann's zeta function arise from inquiries into the distribution of prime numbers. The eigenvalues of a random Hermitian matrix arise from inquiries into the behavior of systems of subatomic particles under the laws of quantum mechanics. What on earth does the distribution of prime numbers have to do with the behavior of subatomic particles?"

Free, Open Source Modular Synth Software Lets You Create 70s & 80s Electronic Music—Without Having to Pay Thousands for a Real-World Synthesizer
Open Culture
In the past decade or so, the analog modular synth—of the kind pioneered by Robert Moog and Don Buchla—has made a comeback, creating a booming niche market fun of musicians chasing the sounds of the 70s and 80s. These inscrutable racks of patchbays, oscillators, filters, etc. look to the non-initiated more like telephone operator stations of old than musical instruments. But the sounds they produce are sublime and otherworldly, with a saturated warmth unparalleled in the digital world. But while Read the full story
