Artsy Diagrams

I have repositories with Ti𝑘Z diagrams from philosophy, economics, psychoanalysis, and computer science.

The diagrams here come from various sources, such as engineering or poetry. Often, they involve computational features (such as loops or randomness) that make them interesting from a draftsman’s point of view.

The diagrams here are evocative just as much for their original meaning, as for new possibilities of interpretation.
