Criminals, unfortunately, have made use of this anonymous network. They created several sites only reachable by the use of Tor. One example is Silk Road and its iterations.

Much of this…

of the area converges to two while the progression of the perimeter goes to infinity, just like the Koch snowflake. Another similarity to the Koch snowflake is that there is a finite area and an infinite fractal curve. The total area to the nth iteration is shown by An= (⅕)+ (⅘) (the sum of k=0 to the n terms) (5/9)^k. The perimeter is…

In his lieder inspired by Klaus Groth’s “Es hing der Reif”, Brahms highlights both the dreamy and nightmarish aspects of fixating on love by floating in-between the relative keys of A minor and C major, introducing foreign “problematic” harmonies and chord members, and implying a strong sense of irony when concluding lines and stanzas.
