Welcome to BCA ⚑⚑ our Virtual Learning Space. Mostly Blackboard snapshots, sometimes with explanatory/exploratory and analytical notes. Open teaching efforts by Fut. Prof. JWL at his BC gate on 1st Cwa Road and HQ research dissemination.

Fast-forward... 2019!

Soroti, Northeastern Uganda. JWL went to visit Awoja Bridge Primary School. Perhaps not the finest of blackboard adventures from what you can see looking at the pics from that trip. Nonetheless, something never written on a board in Soroti was left behind... In *a special hand*. Perhaps no one cared to followup or unravel what was left on the chalkboard... But that's for another day.
JWL in his private study at home... Must've been 2019.
From 2019.. Designing the Architecture for DNAP (Dynamic Nuchwezi Architecture Platform), back then, still referred to as DNA (Data via Nuchwezi Architecture).

This architecture went on to grow into a serious and important Software Construction platform that's currently being explored and which promises to change how we build and evolve software systems for mobile and web especially, using the concept of a "Histrion" and "Personas".
Sometimes, a researcher just wants to put critical ideas on their personal/private blackboard, so as to keep them in mind easily or just sit back every once in a while, and give some serious attention to one or several ideas...

Here, we see JWL's blackboard decorated with some maths, some esoteric science, and computer science.
Of course, there are some kinds of mathematics problems, that want to look like methods of tying shoelaces!

This board has some games being played with concepts from set theory as well as some early explorations of category theory.

Not so fun perhaps.
"Did a PhD loose his mind here..." πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚βœŒοΈπŸ˜„
A well organised scientific researcher's home, should indeed have a special space where the thinkers and tinkerers can go to make minds and brains do work or just have fun...

This here is the private outdoor study and blackboard-driven research space at the home of JWL.
Looks like some ideas relating to Neural Networks (the stuff driving artificial intelligence today), were being explored here.
Calculus for Aliens? Hhaha no!

Here, we see an exploration of how to treat the differential of a multi-dimensional function.
Weird as it might look, here, JWL tries to design a cryptic book cover for his novel, Shrines of The Free Men. Grab a copy of that book from the link below:

DNA is a biological concept originally. However, in modern times, this phenomena that's mostly found in nature, has caught the attention of researchers from many fields including those not directly related to biology.

Here, we see an attempt to illustrate the idea that a kind of source code (the G, A, C & T molecular codes for example ) come together to specify structures that define DNA, and which in turn defines the character of living things or tissue.

DNA ideas relating to genetic programming for example, have been explored by JWL in one or more projects. An example is on this link:

Blackboards, as law enforcement tools in a community.
A quick review of basic tools in solving and analysing triangular forms. A cornerstone in much of applied geometry and physical engineering.
