The authoritarian, theological regime trembles at the voice of a singer in an 'imaginary' concert at an empty caravanserai. The so-called "Islamic Republic"—such a cruel oxymoron—seeks to prosecute Parastoo Ahmadi for two unspeakable acts of defiance:/1

Happy International Women in Mathematics Day!

Maryam Mirzakhani won the Fields Medal in 2014 for her important contributions to geometry and dynamical systems. May 12 was Mirzakhani’s birthday, and now it is a day to celebrate all women in the mathematical sciences.

"A fractal is a way of seeing infinity."

[Physics In History @PhysInHistory]

If A is success in life, then A = x + y + z.

Work is x, play is y and z is keeping your mouth shut.

-- A. Einstein (1879-1955)

I believe in intuition and inspiration. ... At times I feel certain I am right while not knowing the reason. When the eclipse of 1919 confirmed my intuition, I was not in the least surprised. In fact I would have been astonished had it turned out otherwise. Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited, whereas imagination embraces the entire world, stimulating progress, giving birth to evolution. It is, strictly speaking, a real factor in scientific research.

-- as mentioned in Cosmic Religion : With Other Opinions and Aphorisms (1931) by Albert Einstein

1/ Geoffrey West of @sfiscienceon why bigger is better in complex systems - as animals get larger, they become more efficient. Double the size of an animal, and you only have to increase it's metabolic rate by 75%. You get a 25% saving.

[Simplifying Complexity @BHComplexity]

1/ @Sara_Imari of @asu and @sfiscience on the relationship between information and energy in complex systems.

"Energy and information are kind of similar in the sense that they're both abstract properties,

Can we measure imagination? OMI is created to start a new quest in imagination and mental imagery literature. Join me in this journey!

@elonmusk Hey elon, you gave Twitter $44 billions for nothing; What about giving me $1 billion for the same reason?
