@tkoola That's writing to another level. I wonder if it came naturally or by great effort. Thanks for sharing.

@a_seagull_story I don't know but if I had to guess, I’d say this would have been a monumental job with a lot of work. She was after all in a culture that valued meticulous work but tried to exclude her, she must have worked at least twice as hard as her peers

@tkoola hi! I just joined Micro.blog today, a friend stumbled on your post and showed it to me, and I thought I'd share that I've been working on a web implementation of Su Hui's poem that shows the ways to read it :) it's up and running, though still in progress. you can see it and read more about it over at xuanjitu.herokuapp.com cheers!
