I’ve seen it described as “a geometric drawing device that produces mathematical roulette curves of the variety technically known as hypotrochoids and epitrochoids.” And since that sounds too simple for most people, maybe you’d prefer the description in their commercials from back in the 60’s. “Make a million multicolor designs so beautiful your eyes won’t believe what your hands have done.” What is it? … Read the rest…

Since I’m more known for composing (music), it might seem a little weird for me to talk about decomposing. But here I am talking about it. And I’m guessing that you might already be aware of how your DNA starts decomposing the moment you die. Am I right? Well, it does.

Let me tell you about Old Fourlegs, the fish. I know that sounds weird from the git-go. But I think you’ll get a kick out of it. Because it’s one of the rarest of fish tales. It’s true.

And in space time that’s young. Are you still with me? Thinking about young galaxies makes me remember way back in 1964. I’ve mentioned, before, how my Mom and … Read the rest…
A star is born – no, not that one I believe I’ve seen three out of four versions of the movie, A Star Is Born. I know I’ve seen first one from 1937 starring Janet Gaynor and Fredric March. And I’m pretty sure I saw the second one with Judy Garland and James Mason. And I know I saw the third one, in 1976 … Read the rest…
Ain’t it nice when stars collide? Yeah, usually that expression, when stars collide, brings on visions of falling in love. But what about when actual stars crash into each other? It’s all bliss and fun till somebody gets hurt. Right? Fortunately it’s a rare event when stars collide. So rare that scientists had never seen it happen until recently. At least that’s what … Read the rest…
