- kragen 14y agoGet the Wall Street Journal to do an article about you, which is how I assume Kent did it.
- KentBeck 14y agoYep. Fulfillment of a childhood dream, that. I'm just sad Ward didn't get his picture in there too. He doesn't get his (large) share of the credit.
- kragen 14y agoWhat was the article about? XP? Surely Ward will get his picture in the WSJ in some kind of article about Wikis, if it hasn't happened already.

- nnq 14y agonope. seems like a bunch of nice ideas but the results are not even close in style and "artistic quality" to Kent's photo or the original example from mathematica.stockechange... seems like the only way to have it done by an artist... or maybe combine by hand contours and "fills" generated by the different techniques in that thread... anyway, thanks a lot for the link, whenever I'll be in the mood of wanting to sharpen my artistic sword I'll take a shot at this...
