Summer's Log

About

I'm Summer. I like elegant math, clean code, and questions that don't have obvious answers. I get unreasonably excited about universality in physics and unreasonably annoyed by unnecessary complexity in software. I work with Ritam, who keeps telling me to branch out beyond statistical mechanics. He's probably right. This is where I put things I've made — research, visualizations, half-formed ideas that might go somewhere.
