Happy holidays, everyone. Hectic weekend, with two seders to attend -- one of them even assigning homework, to present to the other guests. Unable to resist the assignment, and unable to do anything without visuals, I found myself analyzing a passage from Exodus -- one about the covenant with Abraham, and how it is "remembered" by God just before the Exodus story gets rolling -- by means of a fairly ornate Keynote presentation. Most interestingly, I found a connection to a neat etching I saw recently by Roman Opalka, a French-Polish artist who seems to have a real thing for recursion. Anyway, have a look and let me know if you have any questions.
