“Somehow, a message had been lost on me. Groups act .
The elements of a group do not have to just sit there,
abstract and implacable; they can do things, they can
‘produce changes.’ In particular, groups arise
naturally as the symmetries of a set with structure.”
— Thomas W. Tucker, review of Lyndon’s Groups and Geometry
in The American Mathematical Monthly , Vol. 94, No. 4
(April 1987), pp. 392-394.

ABC Art
A search in Log24 for Wallace Stevens's phrase
"the A B C of Being" suggests a related search, for
"Happy Birthday, Wallace Stevens." That search
in turn suggests a search for "Maori."

ABC Art or: Guitart Solo
“… the A B C of being….” — Wallace Stevens
Scholia —
Compare to my own later note, from March 4, 2010 —
“It seems that Guitart discovered these ‘A, B, C’ generators first,
though he did not display them in their natural setting,
the eightfold cube.” — Borromean Generators (Log24, Oct. 19)
See also Raiders of the Lost Crucible (Halloween 2015)
and “Guitar Solo” from the 2015 CMA Awards on ABC.
