Wonderful Gregor, will do a pointer to here from the Wittrs list I frequent (Sean moderating). Of course I'm fascinated by LW's architectural projects, regard his philosophy as one (or maybe two) of them. :)<br><br>
I'd love to visit with you at some Pycon / Vienna in 20??. We should make one happen, invite 10 other people, call it a circle. :)<br><br>Kirby<br><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Tue, Aug 25, 2009 at 8:30 AM, Gregor Lingl <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:gregor.lingl@aon.at">gregor.lingl@aon.at</a>></span> wrote:<br>

Been sharing some Python lore with Wittgenstein fans (obscure,<br>
esoteric philosopher of 1900s vintage).<br>

Hi Kirby, again,<br>
<br>
as someone interested in architecture (hopefully not only of Buckminster Fuller) following the link of my previous post you might have noticed, that Ludwig Wittgenstein from 1926 to 1928 was heavily involved in building the so called Wittgenstein house or Stonborough House (together with Paul Engelmann, a friendly architect), one of the most modernist buildings in Vienna then.See e. g.: <a href="http://www.spiluttini.com/nextroom.php?id=1681" target="_blank">http://www.spiluttini.com/nextroom.php?id=1681</a> Incidentally it is located in Vienna's third district, the one where I live. So if you intend to visit Vienna somewhen - which is rewarding anyway - I'll be glad to show it (and some other interesting places) to you.<br>
<br>
And now to something completely different: one can find quite a few connections between Python and Wittgenstein, for example (don't be surprised):<br>
