It's good to have some mailing list for Haskell and art now, so I can forward all people interested in Haskore to this mailing list. :-) On Tue, 27 Feb 2007, Creighton Hogg wrote: > So as far as art goes, the only thing I really do is photography.

On 2004-12-08 I listened to a talk of Thomas Noll http://www.math.uni-bremen.de/Math-Net/pages/news/archives/SchedulesOfEvents_de-old.html using a Mac and Lisp and Topos theory and whatever for automatically answering musical questions, like "what is the meter of a given sequence of tones". http://flp.cs.tu-berlin.de/~noll/
Thanks for the link! Ah, from here I found one of the authors I was looking for: Guerino Mazzola. If you look him up on google scholar, his entire book on topoi and music has been scanned as a part of the google books project. I've wanted to give my wife a reason to learn a bit of algebra and category theory, and this book may be the proper motivation.
