Magic squares + Geometry = GeomagicSquares, a concept created by Lee Sallows. Fascinating stuff.
I watched the BBC Horizon documentary "What is Reality?". Lots of interesting food for thought. About the race that is going on between CERN and Fermilab for finding the Higgs-Boson particle for example. A fundamental particle that supposedly explains the creation of mass. Therefore alone the particle is badly needed as it's a bit silly that almost every physics formula has mass in it but mass itself can't be explained.
The laws of physics can be described best with mathematics. Deep physics however can -only- be described with mathematics which leads to the thought that mathematics is not an invention but a discovery. In that sense research mathematicians are much like archaeologists.

Mathematics: is it the fabric of MEST?
This is my voyage
My continuous mission
To uncover hidden structures
To create new theorems and proofs
To boldly go where no man has gone before
(Raumpatrouille – Die phantastischen Abenteuer des Raumschiffes Orion, colloquially aka Raumpatrouille Orion was the first German science fiction television series. Its seven episodes were broadcast by ARD beginning September 17, 1966. The series has since acquired cult status in Germany. Broadcast six years before Star Trek first aired in West Germany (in 1972), it became a huge success.)
