So, why not hit reply and introduce yourself (even if you've posted
already), and reveal your interest in haskell and/or art, whatever
that may be.

I'm Claude Heiland-Allen and I've been using Haskell for artistic purposes for about 5 years, though it's more like 10 years since I first used the language at university, and 20 years since I first used a computer to make art.

My approach to art (whatever that may be) is quite mathematical and experimental - I play around with equations and sometimes something interesting emerges. Most recently I've been using Haskell to explore fractals[0][1] and audio-visualize processes of computation[2], though I've also done some things with hyperbolic tilings[3], 4D polytope visualization[4], physical models[5], monkhood[6], ...

My approach to Haskell is quite haphazard and incremental - I get something working as quickly as possible, then repeatedly refactor it until I no longer cringe when I open the text editor or have to wait hours for it to finish executing.
