I teach Mathematics at Ithaca College and this is my home page:
This is a hands on course where participants will create mathematical art and share it.
We will use a computer language I co-designed with my colleague David Rosenthal.
The language can be downloaded from:
https://docs.google.com/Doc?docid=0AbZ0ZAK7RTghZGhnajNia3FfMTg5NmhuOHh4NGM2&hl=en
Parts of the course will cover chapters in the book that is available in a PDF format
Using the link: http://www.ithaca.edu/dani/APGS/MathArt_Winter2010.pdf
Depending on the student skills and interest it may touch other topics like Math and Music, Creating Games and dynamic Mathematical Art.
Learn the MuMart Language: Basic Drawing commands and Geometrical Operators
Depending on the skills do more advanced aspects (programming, music, dynamic art)

I did not see your post before and I apologize. If you still want to upload it please email me (maybe we can skype?) and I can help you.

I have signed up and added
I have signed up and added the code in application.
I played around a bit to understand the program a bit and the simplest code which produced the grahpics i liked after lot of changing and playing around, I added in the application, I hope you won't mind.
I'll upload it once my application is accepted.
PS : I had fun while doing this, so I am looking forward to this.
