Occasionally, I enjoy doing various forms of art. Mainly, it is playing and writing music. For instance, I travel with one of my compact guitars to play music on the streets and train stations of different cities, in the mountains, and on the beaches. But sometimes I paint (see examples below), make cartoons, or even set up quantum-inspired simulations to create logos for conferences, chat groups, or social network communities (here are more details). More recent examples of my art can be found on my Instagram profile (@madschumacher).
It is a cartoon illustrating the C₃-symmetry axis in ammonia. The image was created for the popular science article on Habr.
This illustration of the Bastiansen-Morino shrinkage effect was published in the [Phys. Chem. Chem. Phys. 18, 28325-28338 (2016)] (Figure 4).
“Russian Christ” (“Русский Христос”) is a song by the Russian band Pornofilmy (Порнофильмы), released in 2017, after the Crimea occupation and beginning of the hidden phase of the Russian-Ukrainian war in 2014, several years before the full-scale invasion of 2022. The approximate translation of this song can be found here.
“The man and the kitty” (“Человек и кошка”) is a song by the Russian band Nol’ (Ноль), released in 1991, right after the collapse of the Soviet Union. It tells a story about a poor man and his cat, who are waiting for the doctor to arrive. The approximate translation of this song can be found here. This artpiece is my visual interpretation of the song.
