How do you start, and finish, a series of pieces?
Usually the mood prompts me to start coding. I pick up an old system, something I've coded before, and carve it into pieces or pull pieces from it. I take old functions and try to recombine them in different ways or work with different parameters. From there, it's iterative. The initial phase is extremely intense, because usually I'm getting no output because the code doesn't work! So that has no cathartic value. But once I start getting output, that's when I feel the expressiveness.
A metaphor that's stuck in my head for it is that it's like the Metropolis Hastings algorithm for sampling from a posterior distribution. When I'm coding, I tweak the code, run it, see what it produces, and see how that resonates with the emotional response or modifies the way I'm feeling. That emotional response becomes the basis for the accept/reject decision. I rarely make the decision on technical grounds. So something that has the same underlying mechanics can go in completely different directions based on the mood, because I make different choices as I reuse the same tools.
My collections are usually strongly tied to an emotional experience – what I was feeling and remembering at the time that I was coding. Sometimes they look like the emotional experience in question, sometimes they don't. The experience is sustained while I'm processing it, and I'll keep making art associated with it until I get bored of the generative system or the emotional processing finally does its job. Then, sometimes, I don't need it anymore – I'm done, it's cathartic, I've gotten past it, and I'm letting it go.
How often do you return to previous work?
Some collections I never want to look at, or anything like it, again! And that's not always because of the emotions – I sometimes get bored of the code. But for most systems I eventually come back around again after a long absence. At that point I come back and rebuild and keep fixing it. It happened with my Water Colours series, which started out with a halftone representation of other preexisting images. I used that before in a system but discarded it because it didn't bring joy. Eventually I picked it back up and recombined with other thoughts I had, and it resonated. And now I have one of my favourite recent series!
What's your process like in the mechanics of choosing pieces?
I often let a system just generate whatever it wants to do and see what it comes up with. Some series come up with really crazy things. For some of the series on my website I've posted, say, a hundred consecutive draws from the system with no censoring whatsoever. Sometimes the colours are choices I wouldn't make myself, but I'm learning to live with some of the chaos that goes into this!
Other collections, I cull as they're produced. Typically I keep somewhere between ten percent and a third of the generated pieces. It depends on how good the system is, and on my patience! Some systems are so slow that I won't generate many pieces. Some are so quick that I'll happily set it running and manually say, 'No, no, no, oh cool yes, no, no', and so those systems have a very low acceptance rate.
Are these common threads between using R for data analysis and for art?
The underlying process of making art is so similar to data analysis in a lot of ways. I end up doing a lot of probabilistic processes for data generation, which is such a statistical toolkit, right? When it comes to creating the art from it, I need to wrangle the data in a new format, and then visualize it. So it's the same underlying tools that we use with data analysis. What I love about the R generative art community is that so often we end up using the same tools that we would use for data analysis.
This interview has been shorted and edited for clarity and readability.
Danielle Navarro is a data scientist, computational artist, and recovering academic. She makes generative art using the R programming language and typically works in series, creating dozens of art pieces from a single underlying generative art system. She lives in Syd- ney on Gadigal land.

History made.
On Wednesday night, the Lions fought to a 2-1 victory against Western Conference heavyweights Sporting Kansas City, leaving Children's Mercy Park with three points in the bag.
The win extended City's current unbeaten run to seven-consecutive matches, breaking the previous Club record set at the beginning of the 2018 season. After falling at Inter Miami in their Phase 1 opener, the team has boasted a 5-0-2 record in their last seven matches, including three straight wins.
While there has been much discussion about the identity of the Club in terms of maintaining possession and controlling the pace of the game, each of these results have come in different ways.
On Saturday against Chicago, the Lions rattled off a season-high 19 shots to put four goals into the back of the net and earn a 4-1 victory in a rather back and forth match, not typically indicative of a three-goal win.
At the midweek, quite the opposite took place, with Kansas City taking twice as many shots as the visitors with 16, but the Lions being the more clinical side in the match with two of their three shots on target finding the back of the net.
The results aren't just coming in different ways however, they're also coming with a heavy amount of rotation. A total of 19 different players have occupied a starting role for Head Coach Oscar Pareja throughout this unbeaten run, including five changes to his starting XI in Kansas City from the Lions' last match against Chicago.
"I am very happy because this is helping us to maintain a very tough rhythm from playing on Wednesday and Saturday, they have been able to keep this level even when we don't have the ball," Pareja said of his group. "The player rotation has been great, I believe that Tesho [Akindele], Daryl [Dike], Chris [Mueller], Mauricio [Pereyra], Luis [Nani], they all understand that this is a collective effort, a team game. This makes me happy because the soul of this group is strong and this makes me proud."
The collective effort has stemmed from both sides of the pitch, with the defense having yet to allow multiple goals in a single match despite rotating seven players throughout the backline. On the offensive end, the team has netted 16 goals from seven different members of the squad, putting the goal differential throughout this stretch at +9.
What the model behind the success has shown us is the sustainability within it, a marquee pillar of the culture and the ideology that Pareja has worked to ingrain into the group since his arrival - that anyone is equipped to step onto the field and do their job at any given moment.
"We want to keep going and qualify the team for the playoffs. Secondly, we know that it's a long road and that we started well but we also have to end it well," Pareja said. "Tonight we didn't focus on anything besides getting the three points. We knew that we could do it and we have our objective of qualifying the team. We are very happy because we are playing with personality. It's hard, but we are improving a lot."
The job certainly is not done yet, but a spot in the 2020 Audi MLS Cup Playoffs is becoming ever more clear with each result the team adds to its resume. While some across the league have yet to buy in on this Lions' side, the players themselves are well aware of the quality they possess along with the opportunities in front of them and plan to ride that momentum through the remainder of the regular season and beyond.
"We have very high confidence within the team. In the locker room we feel like we can beat every team in the league and we are ready to do it. We need to keep our momentum going and keep pushing forward and training hard to get even better than we are and that's what we do every week in and out," defender Robin Jansson said.
"We're working hard, we're very happy, but we're not getting relaxed. We need to get even more three points and we're going to have hard games like this again and we still need to continue to grow together as a team."

The last rites of Group Captain Varun Singh, who was the lone survivor of the Tamil Nadu chopper crash and succumbed to his injuries on Wednesday, will be performed on Friday in Bhopal.
The ritual will be performed at around 11 am. Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan on Thursday had said that Singh's last rites will be performed with full state and military honour.
Earlier on Thursday, the mortal remains of Singh reached the Bhopal airport from Bengaluru where he was admitted to the Command Hospital. The Group Captain, who was battling for life since December 8 and was on life support, succumbed to his injuries in the afternoon on Wednesday, a week after the Mi-17V5 helicopter crash near Tamil Nadu's Coonoor on December 8, in which Chief of Defence Staff (CDS) General Bipin Rawat, his wife Madhulika Rawat and 11 armed forces personnel were killed.
He was undergoing treatment at Wellington's Military Hospital and was later shifted to Air Force Command Hospital in Bengaluru where he passed away on Wednesday. His mortal remains were airlifted to Bhopal today.

Russia is actively searching in Syria for the remains of the late Israeli spy Eli Cohen who was executed in 1965, the Arabic digital news site Rai al-Youm reported on Saturday.
The report claims that this effort is part of the recent prison-swap deal between Syria and Israel. At the time of this writing the claim has not been verified by Israeli sources. Moreover, shortly the prisoner swap, claims were made in Arab media that Israel would fund a batch of Russia's Sputnik V COVID-19 vaccines as part of the deal, but the claims were quickly denied by Israel and Syria. During the swap, Israel returned to Syrian hands two shepherds who crossed the border, in exchange for a young woman who crossed the border from Israel to Syria, the details of which are still largely under gag order.
The search for Cohen's remains is reportedly being conducted at the Yarmouk refugee camp cemetery in south Damascus. Recently, Russian news giant RT recently released a video it says shows Eli Cohen, walking in a Damascus street. The video, unclear and no more than a few seconds in length, has generated headlines throughout the region, both in Arabic and in Hebrew. Experts attribute the interest to Cohen's legendary status and recent Russian efforts to try and facilitate a normalization agreement between the two enemy countries.
Oraib al-Rantawi, founder and director general of the Al-Quds Center for Political Studies in Amman, points to current events as a major contributor to the great interest in the video. The video was released while in the background there are "serious actions by the Russians and by the Syrian government" to find the remains of Cohen and Israeli soldiers killed in Syria long ago, he told The Media Line.
"I hear news from my colleagues in Damascus," he said. "Russian experts, everyday almost, digging in the Yarmouk cemetery, where it is expected his body may be buried." The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights reported on Tuesday that Russian forces have been digging for more than three weeks in the cemetery at the Yarmouk refugee camp south of Damascus in search of the remains of the Israeli agent as well as Israeli soldiers.Earlier this month, the Russian military launched excavations in a Syrian cemetery at the Yarmouk Refugee Camp in Damascus in search of the remains of IDF soldiers who went missing during the First Lebanon War in 1982, Israeli news reported, citing Syrian media.
The reports indicated that Russian troops began excavating the site on February 4, presumably searching for DNA samples from grave plots on the site suspected of belonging to Israeli soldiers who have been missing for nearly 40 years.
It is unknown where the remains of Eli Cohen currently are, as the location of the grave was changed several times, with the last one done in total secrecy under the orders of then Syrian president Hafez al-Assad, the Arab media report claimed.
A man who claimed to be the son of the late Syrian president, Khaled al-Assad, contacted Israeli security services in 2019 from his current home in New Zealand and offered to provide Israel with the details of where the remains are for $1m., KAN News reported.
The claims were checked and judged to be fraudulent.The Mossad was able to retrieve Eli Cohen's wristwatch to Israel in 2018. Daniel Sonnenfeld/TheMediaLine and Tobias Siegal contributed to this report.

CPA Dave Young from the New York State Society of CPAs discussed some beneficial changes to the FAFSA application Monday during News 8 at Sunrise.
Young said FAFSA, which stands for the Free Application for Federal Student Aid, is the application that students fill out to receive federal student aid such as grants, federal loans and work-study opportunities to attend an eligible college or career school.
There are two major changes to the FAFSA for the 2017-18 school year which began July 1 and ends June 30, 2018. The FAFSA will now be available at an earlier date and income information from an earlier tax year can be submitted. Young said these changes will make it easier for families to submit their applications in a timely manner.
If you are planning for the 2018-19 school year, beginning on July 1, 2018 applications can be submitted on October 1 of this year and tax info from 2016 can be used if needed.
Young noted there are important FAFSA deadlines. The federal and state deadline for this year is June 30, 2018, but the colleges will have their own deadlines. He advised getting your application started as soon as possible.

Forrester Consulting assesses the costs and benefits of IBM i
June 7, 2021
Alex woodie
IBM i supporters often cite the platform's low cost of ownership, integrated nature, and self-management features as key advantages over competing systems. In an attempt to put real data behind these claims, IBM commissioned Forrester Consulting, which recently presented its findings in a report titled "The Total Economic Impact of IBM i."
To understand the unique financial characteristics of the IBM i server, Forrester Consulting, which is an offshoot of the leading technology analyst firm called Forrester Research based in Cambridge, Massachusetts, interviewed four current users of the system. He collected data on the relative costs and benefits of using IBM i compared to the IT systems that came before it in each of these companies, as well as data on the flexibility and risks inherent in these systems. . He then combined the data into a single composite view. Forrester Consulting calls this its Total Economic Impact Methodology, or TEI.
Participants in the study included a European Union-based transportation and logistics management company with 150,000 full-time equivalent (FTE) employees and annual sales of $ 24 billion; a US-based manufacturer / retailer with 5,000 FTEs and sales of $ 2 billion per year; a county government in the United States with 1,400 FTEs and $ 500 million in annual revenues; and a UK-based manufacturer with 100 FTEs and $ 20 million in annual sales.
Prior to adopting the IBM i platform, organizations struggled with their IT systems and experienced business interruptions due to unplanned downtime, Forrester Consulting wrote in its report. They had to employ additional workers to make the various siled systems communicate with each other. And their employees have spent thousands of hours managing manual tasks, such as billing, data backup, and document imaging.
Forrester Consulting collected data related to these variables from IBM i customers and then built a composite company as part of its TEI framework. This composites company is an American manufacturer that sells its products direct to consumers and also operates its own customer support and service / warranty business. It has $ 100 million in annual sales, two factories, two distribution centers, 15 retail stores (split between the US and the EU), an online storefront and 5 million customers, according to the report.
As you would expect, this composite company manages an integrated ERP system, as well as other service applications. The applications run on an imaginary eight-core Power Systems S924, which has a non-imaginary price tag of around $ 74,000, along with a license fee of $ 295,000 for the system and application software, and maintenance fees. monthly payments of $ 168. In total, the three-year costs for the imaginary company are $ 348,000, says Forrester Consulting in its report.
Now for the benefits. Due to the integrated nature of IBM i and its relative stability, some costs that businesses would incur on other platforms are lower on IBM i. According to Forrester Consulting, reducing system downtime results in savings of approximately $ 530,000, reducing technical support costs saves the composite company $ 255,000, and improving staff productivity. employees adds about $ 158,000 to the IBM i side of the virtual ledger. These figures are totals over a three-year period.
All told, when you add up the savings, the IBM Composite Store i recorded a profit of $ 943,000 versus a cost of $ 348,000 over three years, which leads to a net present value (NPV) of $ 595,000. . The return on investment (ROI), meanwhile, stands at 171%, with an eight-month payback period (see Figure 1).
"IBM i is an environment that integrates an operating system with the database, virtualization layer, application server and transactional system," the authors of Forrester Consulting wrote in the report summary. "The reliability and security of this environment allows organizations to reduce system downtime and administrative support costs, as well as improve the productivity of front-line workers.
In addition to the quantitative analysis of the composite client using the TEI approach (which Forrester Consulting explains in detail at the end of the 18-page report), the consulting group also provided some qualitative statements from IT managers and of executives they interviewed at current IBM i stores. If you've been on the platform for a while, these will likely strike a chord.
"I would say the biggest advantage of IBM i is basically that it doesn't crash," said a senior systems specialist at the EU-based logistics company. "It's the biggest real capacity that business colleagues on other platforms value the most. What we have seen is that these systems are very stable. For critical operations requiring very high availability, we opt for IBM i.
"If we can do it on this system, we have to do it on this system and not look to others, period," said a vice president of operations for a retail company. "And there isn't much. I mean we do imaging on this system. We provide printing service on this system.
"Because the database is integrated with the operating system, it allows the administrator to manage the database with reorganizations and table sizes," said the IT engineering supervisor of the manufacturer / retailer based in Canada. United States. "The admin is really working with the developers to develop a strategy for how things are handled with data. On the other systems side, it looks like you buy licenses individually. It starts to get out of hand and hard to manage in these environments where licensing is ubiquitous and you get charged for this and that. In our company, we do not have a DBA so it is the administrator who manages the database.
This is not the first time that IBM has attempted to quantify the benefits of IBM i. Every few years IBM commissions reports like this. But this one is interesting because it is the first time that he has used Forrester Consulting and its innovative TEI framework, which provides clarity in the calculation of technological benefits, which is not always easy.
