I am interested in employing my ability to automatically generate images based on computer algorithms for the purpose of the endeavors taken on by the Abrahadabra Institute or its members. This was actionally on of my original intentions in joinging the forums. Any tedious graphics design task that makes you say "uhh, I shouldn't have to do this by hand" i.e. drawing all 729 Tai Swan Ching hexagrams, please feel free to ask me and I should be able to spin it out in a fraction of the time. Possibily I may need to describe my range of ability at greater length. Questions are helpful in this. Also, I am considering putting together some instructional resources to show people how they could code their own images using my tools. Would any of you be interested in learning ? Do you have any specific problems you are interested in working on ? I think in general, computer programing is a great tool for magickians, especially those of the numerological breed, and it would be my pleasure to share these abilities with the community.

Neat, you're awesome. I can't wait to see what you come up with after collaboration.

I feel almost pedantic saying this, but I suppose you know that the conventional transliteration for what you are calling the 'tai swan ching' is 'Tai Hsuan Ching'. I for one have no task for you, but it will be interesting to see what you produce on other's requests... I am afraid I know you too well to trust you..

Oh yes...I can think of several very important tasks that would facilitate conversations around here...particularly concerning the 729 Hex's, which is an arduous graphics task.
There are a number of very important charts that would be very helpful for people to have access to that are no longer in print. To begin with, just having a quick visual reference to the bigrams-->trigrams-->tetragrams-->hexagrams all laid out chronologically would be very helpful. Then there are circular arrangements, seasonal arrangements, assorted molecular arrangements (such as the 9 Mansions, or 9 magic squares) and a whole range of Ogdoad-Ennead arrangements cross-referencing the 64 binary hex's with the 729 ternary hex's that would all be very helpful reference guides.
Go ahead and PM me if you want to get started on something and we can discuss specifics as needed...I would only ask that anything I help you to put together be posted publicly so that everybody can derive the benefit.
