"And so I will state here just plainly and briefly that I accept God. But I must point out one thing: If God does exist and really created the world - as we well know - he created it according to the principles of Euclidean geometry and made the human brain capable of grasping only three dimensions of space. Yet there have been and still are mathematicians and philosophers - among them some of the most outstanding - who doubt that the whole universe, or, to put it more generally, all existence was created to fit Euclidean geometry; they even dare to conceive that two parallel lines that, according to Euclid, never do meet on Earth, do in fact meet somewhere in infinity. And so my dear boy, I've decided that I am incapable of understanding of even that much, I cannot possibly understand about God."
- Fyodor Dostoyevsky -

A pure mathematician who delves into an abstract realm and writes poetry based on that.
A firm believer that in the not-too-distant future most humans will travel through space, discovering parallel universes...and that our Earth will be transformed into a virtual 'Garden of Eden', where humans would travel to for their holidays and excursions.
By effectively harnessing the forces of nature and other energies all around us - but invisible to the naked eye - humans will ultimately transcend to some spectacular places...traveling at the speed of light and communicating through vast distances.
Unbelievable things are waiting to be discovered in this vast expanding universe of ours and mathematics, as always, will prove to be our most useful tool in deciphering it; it's the most ancient of tools, and one that will ultimately be responsible for enriching our lives.
The whole geometry of our future in space will no longer conform to Euclid's limited universe, but will ultimately embrace Benoit Mandelbrot's abstract 'fractal' vision instead - shaping everything that is man made.
The Mandelbrot Set is invariably self-similar, zoomed in from every facet...going on to infinity - which is in direct correlation with our ever-expanding universe and the multiverses that have yet to be discovered, giving us a tiny 'glimpse' of what lies ahead for humanity.
