The book, ROCK 'N' DRAW is citable as such:

Lutalo, Joseph Willrich (2025). ROCK 'N' DRAW. figshare. Book. https://doi.org/10.6084/m9.figshare.28724129.v2

Or using BiBTeX:

@article{Lutalo2025,
author = "Joseph Willrich Lutalo",
title = "{ROCK 'N' DRAW}",
year = "2025",
month = "4",
url = "https://figshare.com/articles/book/ROCK_N_DRAW/28724129",
doi = "10.6084/m9.figshare.28724129.v2"
}

Other citation options for other editions shall follow/can work, but one might use the above for now.

The hard-cover edition/option is also now available. Makes for a good alternative for those intending to read/use the book long-term especially as a reference book - which is among its true intended purposes.

Such a well spent day... Mostly studying an entertaining advanced CS paper:

Bikos, Anastasios, Panagiotis E. Nastou, Georgios Petroudis, and Yannis C. Stamatiou. "Random number generators: Principles and applications." Cryptography 7, no. 4 (2023): 54. https://doi.org/10.3390/cryptography7040054

featuring some moving ideas on RNGs by that guy you see.. John Von Neumann 👆🏼🙄👋😄

👆🏻😆🔥🔥🙏🏻 RNG baby.. 😉

#bacomics #bafun and just some fans... tis getting too hot in here 🙏🤣👆🏼😄

----[In Researcher Features]:

Professor John von Neumann (1903–1957) was a Hungarian-American mathematician, physicist, and computer scientist known for his groundbreaking contributions across multiple fields.

### Key Contributions

- Mathematics & Physics – Developed the mathematical framework for quantum mechanics and contributed to functional analysis.
- Game Theory – Pioneered game theory, influencing economics and strategic decision-making.
- Computing – Designed the von Neumann architecture, the foundation of modern computers.
- Nuclear Research – Played a crucial role in the Manhattan Project, contributing to nuclear weapon development.

He was a professor at Princeton University and the Institute for Advanced Study, collaborating with leading scientists of his time. His work continues to shape fields like artificial intelligence, cryptography, and computational science[1][2][3].

Anyways.. UEL, despite not being a terrific place for me to go for my PhD interests in Computer Science or Software Engineering (because they are generally heavily into [Creative] Arts, Architecture & Psychology programmes from what I've gleaned thus far), it's still one of interesting schools in London or rather the UK that's of note to me, and which has caught my interests in the past!

If anyone from UEL is passing by, or visiting us here on Blackboard Adventures, we definitely love you
👋💚 And think we'll possibly bump into each other in the future if all goes well 🤭

Meanwhile, so sad concerning the death of Pope Francis. Yet another pope dead in my lifetime. God help us All. 🙏😔

## Quick JWL Mini-Lecture: About The Eye as its Own Mini-Computer!

It hits me as rather not just miraculous, but very breathtaking, that the eye itself does some actual computations independently of the brain!

Like, when light arrives in the eye (as photons), it doesn't go as photons to the visual cortex (in the brain) for our brains to detect or process images we've seen via the eye!

The eye itself does some preprocessing[1] of light information about what is seen, and then only sends the processed information (as chemically encoded electrical signals[2]) to the brain; somehow, meaning the eye has a little brain/processor of itself!

The 👀👁️ Eye computes;

✓ Edge & Contrast Detection [3]
✓ Color Processing [2]
✓ Motion Detection [4]
✓ Data Compression [3]

I mean.. OMG!
Just an Eye!! 👀
Before the 🧠 Brian ever gets involved!! Isn't this such a fun fact?

Once the signals reach the visual cortex in the brain, that's when they undergo higher-level processing, including object recognition, depth perception, and spatial awareness[5].

Your Exercise: How many such mini-computers does the (human) body have in it independent of the main, central Main Computer (aka. Brain)?

🙌🤭
