- pmiri 8y agoIt was a real treat seeing his name at the start of this.
- starshadowx2 8y agoDefinitely. I had no idea he was involved going in, I thought it would just be some neat math I didn't understand (which it still was). Greg Egan has been my favourite author for a few years now, ever since reading Diaspora.
- pavel_lishin 8y agoHis twitter account is chock full of interesting animations and links to math he's working on.
- Osmium 8y agoI finally read some Greg Egan recently and was not disappointed (started with 'Axiomatic' which is a collection of short stories, I'm not sure if this is the best place to start but I found it to be a good introduction...haven't read an author who could write a story around Cantor sets before!).
