Pi Diagram


Ok, so I?m really sorry I haven?t been able to post lately.

[What have I been up to, you ask? I?ve been GRE-ing, freshmen-advising, and researching].

You know how I did an entry once on philosophers and their guilt? It?s wearing off on me!!!! I really feel so guilty every day that I do not post.

To assuage said guilt, I created this diagram a while ago after watching the movie Pi. If you don?t get it, that?s ok. It?s kind of lame anyway. 

Fake story behind this weird diagram: I was following a bunch of philosophers around and charting their exact activities (because everything I do is measured and exact), and suddenly I realized that, if you chart the data and create complex mathematical equations, philosopher-activities follow a spiral pattern! It all goes back to pi (as in 3.14 . . .).

Ok, really . . . I disliked this movie . . . and I'm not a mathematician or a scientist. 

I?m answering questions in my spare moments. I almost have another set worked up.

- Philosophers In Love: Where To Find A Philosopher
So, let's assume that after all of these blog posts on philosophers, you simply have to go out and find yourself a philosopher of your very own. Where might you find one? I've created a graph that might help you in your endeavors. [Note: This...

- Philosopher Faces: What Non-philosophers See
Despite the caffeine I've consumed today, I have not been very clear-thinking (there was a brief window of thought-clarity this morning, but it was taken up by work at my real job), so I drew a graph of philosopher-faces for the post. This is an extremely...

- The Lifecycle Of The Academic Philosopher: Flowchart
Because I am still tired out from a long post yesterday (or from being dumb and not ingesting any caffeine today), I have created another flowchart. This one includes color-coded stress-levels. There will be a legitimate post tomorrow . . . probably....

- Philosophy Friday Fun: Coffee Flowchart
There are about a bazillion of these clever flowcharts out there, but I made another. Philosophers love coffee, so it fits. Philosophers, any scary coffee stories?   P.S. You can follow me on twitter now (philosiologist). I don't really know...
