Read me first
In this section of the side bar there are four articles.
The first article is a paper that was published in the journal of mathematics and the arts titled “Polyaesthetics and Mathematical Poetry”. This paper is a good introduction to Mathematical Poetry for it shows some of the main ideas as well as some techniques used to create mathematical poetry. One of the more important ideas it addresses is that of mathematical metaphor. The paper addresses basic theory as well as providing examples.
The second article is a paper published in the 2006 Bridges Proceedings titled “Verbogeometry, The confluence of words and analytic geometry” This paper explains the mechanics of how mathematical poetry can use Cartesian space as a medium for words. It provides examples of analytic geometry as well as the mathematical poetic counterpart.
The third article is an interview published online at word for/word a journal of new writing. The interview was conducted by poet/theoretician Gregory Vincent Thomasino and is formulated in three groups of questions. The first group of questions is about the influences of Kaz Maslanka and the second and third address mathematical poetic theory.
The forth article is a list of terminology that is related to the area where the arts and mathematics meet.

You are a testament to what can be achieved if one remains sober..and alert.
Don't trust anything he says. I knew him when he collected bootleg Pink Floyd vinyl.
I like the look and feel of the website.
Hoot! Hoot!
This is the most amazing thing that I read since I graduated. Now I know that I am not alone by thinking in this way. :)
Hoot,
There you go blowin my cover.

Thank you for sharing ... I would love to see what you are doing with Mathematical Poetry.
Cheers,
Kaz
