I am a user interface designer turned developer turned math enthusiast who focuses on lambda calculus, and analysis. I enjoy making cognitive maps and interfaces to understand mathematics, science, and philosophy so that an enthusiast can accessibly understand the lay of the land of these technical subjects.

Towards this purpose I find category theory to be of great use in bringing clarity to networked knowledge. But since its flooring/ceiling of abstraction is so deep/high and models range from the very specific to the highly abstract, I am penning articles introducing these ideas from an elementary setting. Take a look at this article introducing a work horse of category theory, the Galois connections (antitone adjunctions) in the setting of binary relations.
