An interesting piece here on difference between human and other species' #cultural complexity, highlighting the aspect of #diversity.

True enough, but this is not dealing with the #symbolic, the shared #imaginary. Humans share their dreams about things that don't exist. Crows, chimps, elephants, whales, they don't.

Try Rainbow Snakes, for instance. Instead of being diverse, they are astoundingly similar around the world. Come and and hear our talk with Ivan Tacey on Tuesday for more on that.

This is a whimsical mini print of a couple of Snowflake Beetles a widely unknown, quite possibly, completely #imaginary creature. These miniscule #insects are camouflaged to match their environment, fresh fallen snow. Each of their hexagonal shields (the elytra) are disguished as snowflakes. Through an extraordinary instance of biomimicry, each pattern is as unique; it is believed that no 2 Snowflake #Beetles are the same.*⁠

As we approach the Year of the Snake, has me thinking back to this print.

Some believe that the chrysanthemum snake is imaginary. Who am I to say?⁠

While other snakes are known to use scale roughness to aid in camouflage, give a bristly appearance, to produce “eyelash” fringes or even tentacles on their snouts, the cryptic chrysanthemum snake (also known as the daisy snake) is the only known snake with 🧵

Following on from yesterday’s posting of flow around a #ZhukovskyAerofoil, I’ve added #equipotential lines (blue) in addition to #streamlines (black). The two families are #contours of the #real and #imaginary parts of an #AnalyticFunction and therefore have the property of intersecting #orthogonally. The plots aren’t ideal as there are some anomalous features where the equipotential lines are very close to the #aerofoil.
