Cool MATLAB Plots

There are many cool plots made in MATLAB across the web. I have set up for myself a way to find new ones on flickr, a website for sharing photos.

Systematically Find Plots

I find plots by creating searching for the tag matlab in flickr. I then set up an RSS feed from this search and see updates to the plots whenever I open my feedreader. For what it's worth, I use the Sage feedreader, a plug-in to the Firefox browser. One thing you will see if you do this is that there are some nice MATLAB graphics.

Who's Posting?

One thing you will quickly notice it many beautiful plots from one particular user: Arenamontanus.

Notice Anything Else?

Do you notice anything else interesting among these pictures? If so, share it with us here.

    Have just installed Sage and done the serach in Flickr..
    But I am puzzled now on how to “set up an RSS feed from this search”

    I’ll put in plug for my shareIt File Exchange submission that, among other things, makes it easy to upload plots to flickr via email. Doug Hull wrote it up as a “pick of the week” awhile back. You can read his comments here: http://blogs.mathworks.com/pick/2007/06/18/sharing-screenshots-with-flickr and find shareIt in the File Exchange here: http://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/fileexchange/loadFile.do?objectId=15222&objectType=file

    Michel-

    Go to this page first: http://www.flickr.com/photos/tags/matlab and you should find an RSS feed available there.

    Check out these MATLAB images as well. Very pretty!

Wrap code fragments inside <pre> tags, like this:

<pre class="code">
a = magic(3);
sum(a)
</pre>

If you have a "<" character in your code, either follow it with a space or replace it with "&lt;" (including the semicolon).
