THX: Experiments in Synchronicity
$17.98
The premise of this album is so compelling: two teams of artists who take turns reworking the tracks until they're finished. Think of it like combat, like a duel. My brother and I sometimes write music this way and the results are always fascinating, not to mention bizarrely hybridized.THX: Experiments... is probably the album I've listened to most in the last year. I got it last Christmas (actually, I got two copies, but that's another story) and still have it in my car at least one day out of three.The standout tracks are 1, 3, and 10. In fact, track 3 (Break-in at Apt. 205) is worth the price of the CD. Songs this bad-a$$ are rarer than rare. Pop this in your car's CD player and I promise you'll feel like you're in a music video.There aren't any bad tracks on here, it's all quality material. I particularly liked the contributions of Swayzak, but then, I'm partial to them.Get this CD if you like: Theorem, Swayzak, Detroit, Berlin, Minimalism, and/or Tech-House

Journey through Genius: The Great Theorems of Mathematics
$16.00
This book is an amazing journey through the centuries of human struggle to enhance the language of mathematics in order to understand the nature. It sheds light on the human story behind evolving of mathematics. There are no dry mathematical theorems. Rather, these theorems and proofs are written in a way that fascinates and inspires the reader. This lucidly written book inspires to study more about the subject and number of polymaths it refers to.

Note on how to read: The book refers to many great human minds, throughout. I had little knowledge about Cicero or Leibniz. So, I usually google and read about them. It is a little digression and slows you down; but you learn much more. Similarly, a theorem or topic of interest, briefly discussed in epilogue of each chapter, can be studied in more detail, as you go along.

Theorem Painting: An Instructional Video for Beginners [VHS]
$19.95
The project was cute but did not have enough data on the original way theorems were done and how to make a stencil, etc. I expected more more than one small project. Though I was very disappointed, but I did learn something.
