Digital bits from Andy Kosela
The sheer joy of making things... the fascination of fashioning complex
puzzle-like objects of interlocking moving parts and watching them work
in subtle cycles... the delight of working in such a tractable medium.
The programmer, like the poet, works only slightly removed from pure
thought-stuff. He builds his castles in the air, from air, creating by
exertion of the imagination. --Frederick P. Brooks
Riddlers, like poets, imitate God by creating their own cosmos; they
re-create through words, making familiar objects into something
completely new, re-arranging the parts of pieces of things to produce
creatures with strange combinations of arms, legs, eyes and mouths.
--Ruth Wehlau
