Artist in Residency: Sage Jenson (mxsage)
Hi, I’m Sage Jenson and I was recently artist-in-residence at Nervous System. As part of my work, I create GPU-based simulations inspired by natural phenomena, from slime mold to snow. Jesse, Jessica and the team at Nervous System helped me translate my digital simulations into physical objects through 3D-printing, metal casting and traditional 2D-printing. Creating these objects pushed the technical boundaries of my work towards more responsive and detailed simulations.

Data structures: Pairing Heap
Recently, I came across a neat data structure called a pairing heap. Now, if you’re not familiar with the term heap it can sound…
