Photographer Loves Math, Graphs Her Images

Here are some of the pictures the photographer named Nikki Graziano have captured. Graziano, is a math and photography student at Rochester Institute of Technology, she overlays graphs and their corresponding equations onto her carefully composed photos.

    “I wanted to create something that could communicate how awesome math is, to everyone,” she says.

Graziano doesn’t go out looking for a specific function but lets one find her instead. Once she’s got an image she likes, Graziano whips up the numbers and tweaks the function until the graph it describes aligns perfectly with the photograph. See more of her Found Functions series at Nikkigraziano.com.

you know how people say “shoot for the moon, even if you miss you’ll land among the stars”?

actually, besides the sun, the closest star is over 4 light-years away

so if you miss, you’ll just be floating through the dark void of space for the rest of eternity
until you are dead, just like your dreams

Surely they’re not lost anymore. I mean, surely, after a certain amount of time, if you’re in a location… you can’t say ‘I’m lost”. Because you’ve been there too long, that’s where you live. You’re not lost, that’s where you live now, you’ve moved.
