This my research (and assorted other things) blog, myself being Alex Jurgens, a PhD candidate in Physics at the University of California, Davis. My research is complex systems, with a focus on stochastic processes generated by infinite state hidden Markov processes. My main homepage contains relevant information and links to my research publications, my CV, Github and Google Scholar, which should cover all the requisite academic links.

The blog’s name is thanks to the classic short story BLIT by David Langford, which I can’t help but recall whenever I am working with fractals, which is often.
