Last November I wrote a molecular simulator called Go Replicants! that uses Go potentials to simulate protein folding processes and study some of their thermodynamic properties. Its source code and some instructions can be found here.
Applications of the absolute quadratic complex and the quadric of segments in 3D reconstruction.
The final project in my post-graduate degree in Mathematics explains two approaches for computing a Euclidean upgrading of a projective 3D reconstruction, which has applications in Computer Vision. The slides for a talk I gave a couple of weeks ago explaining the subject matter are also available online.

Halberd screencast
Vivek Ramachandran has created a screencast demonstrating the use of my program Halberd. Do watch it if you want to see Halberd in action!

Functional programming in Maple
I have written some notes on functional programming in Maple mainly to help me find my way around it. For the moment these notes are very terse but I find them useful as a cheat sheet and I might expand them in the future.
Emacs bankruptcy
I decided to follow the zeitgeist and declare .emacs bankruptcy. This is the outcome.
