Not Yet Ready:

Elementary Description of illiMaze4D
A program for CAVE and Windows that allows the user/pilot to fly through a virtual (Euclidean) 4-dimensional maze. The visible world is a 3-dimension section of space which contains the pilot and is usually orthogonal to the world axes. The pilot may rotate this view one quarter-turn about a 2-dimensional axis. My hope was that with this program, one could gain some feeling for the simplest of 4-dimensional spaces.

(I hope to someday make it available for downloading.)

Where I hang out

130 Altgeld Hall or 129 Altgeld Hall (the computer lab)
The Daily Grind

A somewhat random collection of pictures that were sent to me in email attachments, making it trivial to put them on the WWW:

Brother Burny is Angela Bofill's musical director.
Parental Units #1 and #2, and others
Family in Argentina
Some pictures from 1994 I believe. A few friends of mine had somehow gotten ahold a digital camera and Adobe Photoshop, and the inevitable happened. No, not that.
