Poetry?

Recently I attended an evening on Poetry and Medicine. That triggered my search into all those files that created the basis for writing my first prototype and the specifications for

T2i - Infinity

my second prototype. Since then, I have fine tuned my skill to write ‘software specifications’ considerably.

However, at the time of travelling along my intellectual odyssey of ‘software-aided thinking‘, I did not only write in tables, to distinguish between The Old, The New and The Difference; I also wrote ‘prosaic poetry‘ or ‘poetic prose‘. That’s what I’m publishing here now, one page at a time. It’s meant to be a reflection of those insights that I had.

For I don’t want to share my insights. I want to give you the software lenses with which you can gain those insights yourself; so that you enjoy ‘aha’ moments and ‘eureka’ experiences. So far, the right combination of funder, coder and application has not presented itself. However, trust me to keep trying!

Meanwhile, some of my insights as follows:

  5. Cosmic Constants  [Day 26]
  6. From Constants to Variables  [Day 27 late due to Celebrating 50 Years of Computing @ CERN]

      It is!

      Ways of describing what I know and find MUCH more enjoyable expressing in this way.

  4. […]  coding and other forms of expressing thought. What’s the difference in thinking, when writing poetry, prose or code? Or is it interpretation what we’re doing when we think we’re thinking? […]

    Dear Sabine,
    to this poem on your blog, some words from me.
    Hermann Hesse: The Life I Chose Myself
    This poem is an adaption from Max Hayek’s “Der Weg” (1916).
    The author’s truth name ist Dr. Beat Imhof, a swiss psychologe.
    Search for Beat Imhof and “Das Leben, das ich selbst gewählt” and you’ll find some more informations.
    Greetings from Frankfurt, Olaf Hantl
