Sometimes in early autumn Oxford gets those perfectly still days, where the mist rises slowly from the meadow and river as the sun rises.



Serafina and I were out again at dawn and the music of Chad Lawson beckoned her to capture the magic of water.

And much has happened since I suddenly realised that three fields of mathematics of the brain are in fact just three faces of one operator. Still, over time Serafina

And so Serafina and I were back to chasing flowers at dawn... Lately we have been exploring Chinese poetry from the Tang dynasty, and as we walked along in the woods above the river, Serafina reminded me of the poem by Du Fu (杜甫, 712–770)
