Madeleine Shepherd<p>Bah! Stupidly missed the last day of <a class="hashtag" href="https://bsky.app/search?q=%23mathartmarch" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#mathartmarch</a>! I blame shingles vax side effects. Not sure what I'd have posted. My work is certainly changing so that fits the prompt which was "change". Expect knitted wall art subjecting traditional Fair Isle patterns to Conway's Game of Life. No photos yet.</p>
Tommaths (he/him) 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️<p>It's April but people are still posting on the <a class="hashtag" href="https://bsky.app/search?q=%23MathArtMarch" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#MathArtMarch</a> feed. Clearly it's staying up while People are still using the <a class="hashtag" href="https://bsky.app/search?q=%23tag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#tag</a> but...
... should I update it to look for more tags. Like, dare I say it, <a class="hashtag" href="https://bsky.app/search?q=%23MathArtApril" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#MathArtApril</a>?</p>

Tommaths (he/him) 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️<p>At the end of <a class="hashtag" href="https://bsky.app/search?q=%23MathArtMarch" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#MathArtMarch</a> I'm wondering whether I should unpublish the feed in a couple of weeks or leave it for people to honour <a class="hashtag" href="https://bsky.app/search?q=%23MathArtMarch" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#MathArtMarch</a> in their hearts, and try to keep it all the year.

Maths Week Scotland<p>It's the last day of <a class="hashtag" href="https://bsky.app/search?q=%23MathArtMarch" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#MathArtMarch</a> so we wanted to add to a couple more of the prompts we missed.

Madeleine Shepherd<p>Obviously I have to go back to my Game of Life Fair Isle project for today's <a class="hashtag" href="https://bsky.app/search?q=%23mathartmarch" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#mathartmarch</a> prompt "game". Here's my knitted portrait of its originator, John Conway, with heraldic bands of pulsars and gliders in traditional Fair Isle colours.</p>
David A.

If the sequence ever reaches 1, the n is a happy number (green); otherwise (blue) it ends up in the 4, 16, 37, 58, 89, 145, 42, 20 cycle (red).
