==Trip to a museum==
On weekend (Saturday?) I'm planning to visit the Georgia O'Keeffe Museum; after that I'm going to see some more of Santa Fe (no plan yet -- waiting for proposals). Anyone interested?
Cheers,
Piotr

==Road Trip to Boulder, Colorado==

From Gareth: Hi all, I'm planning on making a trip up to Boulder, CO for the weekend. It's about a 6 1/2 hr drive from Santa Fe and I'll be renting a car. My main reason for the trip is to see a friend of mine so you might have to sort your own accommodation (camping/youth hostel/hotel). We're planning on a bit of hiking nearby. The plan is to leave straight from class on Friday evening and arrive back in Santa Fe on Sunday eve. If you're interested in splitting petrol and rental fee and joining me for some Springsteen singalongs then sign up:

==Dancing==

Swing dancing on Monday 18th June.
Lessons from 7 to 8 P.M.
Dancing from 8 on wards.
The cost is $8 including the lesson and dancing (or $3 for the dancing). Venue: Odd Fellows Hall, 1125 Cerrillos Road. We have not yet decided on transportation. We could either take a cab or walk -- Let's try to decide during dinner.
Sign up below if you are interested:

1.Vikram -- Slightly biased towards taking the lesson. 
2. Xue -- dancing, though not a strong preference. 
3. Mark - I could use a lesson, or twelve. Do we have transportation? 
4. Chloe -- would rather walk down with everyone than skip the lesson. 
5. Aleksandra -- would try lesson, may be stay for dancing. 

PS: If you are on the edge because you want to attend the session on "Introduction to Python". I would be happy to walk you through the basics of Python at a later time. -- Vikram

PPS: how about a Dancing Python lunch tomorrow? I can do intro tutoring too. --Chloe

Other varieties --

There's a contra on the 23rd; swing dancing most Mondays; this is supposed to be a great tango town, and the drop-in-friendly beginner class on Thursday PM was good ($20, though).

[http://www.santafenewmexican.com/Sidebar/Dance_fever_in_Santa_Fe swing, salsa, tango]

We've heard great Appalachian-style folk musicians here already, but I haven't found a ceili or hoedown locally.

Strombomd:

I'm a 4th year PhD student in applied mathematics at Uppsala University in Sweden. BSc Mathematics, MSc Engineering physics.

Mainly working on modeling collective motion of animals, think flocks of birds or schools of fish. Design and analysis of so called self-propelled particle models, from general to specific experimentally motivated ones e.g. sheep-sheepdog, ants, fish and prawns. In the general case we search for a minimal set of biologically plausible local rules capable of producing a sensible global result. In particular, we want the group to stay together, move in space and exhibit some kind of nontrivial internal dynamics. Side projects include evolving self-propelled particle models to solve problems (efficient foraging etc.) and modeling the evolution of social norms.
