My interest in the present topic began during my senior year at the University of Utah, where I took a required course in the Honors Program designed to expose non-technical majors to the world of calculus and some of its applications. After many years of regarding myself as purely an "artist," with little or no capacity in regarding seriously the seemingly a lien forest of science, it was with sheer astonishment that I discovered that that forest was not so altogether a lien after all. Not only could I in some degree relate to and appreciate it, but it in turn extended to me some compelling new perspectives and possibilities regarding that very "art" which I had for so long supposed it to be completely disjoint from. |
