Turing machine in muffins

On my daily browse through blogs, I found this computer science professor Susan Rodger who maps out her mathematical experiments with baked goods.

On this occasion she made edible Turing machines, one batch on March the 23rd 2004, the other batch on March the 27th, 2004.

Susan Rodger has other delightful mathematical baking experiments online.

I do wonder what happens with the Turing muffins, afterwards...

Thanks Xeni Jardin!

I just wanted to suggest a few tools for mapping photos of Brussels. For example here is a links for the Panoramio tool that shows some of the current images http://tinyurl.com/2mclon

Most of these images are touristy views of buildings and landmarks but it could be used to show mores intersting things. In paticular this might be useful for documeting urban actions happening all over the city.
