I want to write some examples (as long blog posts or similar) in a few concrete science fields showing how to use these tools in practice and submit those. I feel like the chebfun guys haven’t really figured out some good introductory hooks yet, or done much marketing/outreach: most of their output is papers about approximation theory which takes some amount of effort to figure out and only get seen by academics working in the same subfield, and the practical examples on their site are pretty small pieces (and don’t have comparisons vs. alternative approaches) so it’s hard to see the big picture. Those lecture videos are pretty good, but an hour long lecture is a somewhat big commitment and hard to skim.
BTW, I’m serious about the email thing: shoot me a note (address in my profile) and I’d love to hear about your attempts to implement Geometric Algebra in code. One of my goals for the next few years is to at some point sit down and write a nice web-based introduction to GA filled with interactive diagrams.
