 Cloudband Magazine : The Contemporary Chinese Calligraphy of Fung Ming Chip at Michael Goedhuis   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
The modern edge to his works is evident in less rigid calligraphic layouts, the use of wooden boards instead of the carved stone of traditional seals, and his development of varied, non-traditional scripts which employ unconventional stroke orders, ink tones, compositional arrangements, and even the shadows of characters.
For example, his swirl script is closely related to grass script (caoshu) and mad cursive script (kuangcao).
This swirl script shares many of the attributes of ancient script types: strokes with fluid motion and power, the brush looping across the paper with the brush tip in constant contact with it, and the occasional linking together of several characters.

The Open GRASS Foundation has since evolved into the Open GIS Consortium, which is aiming for more thorough interoperability at the data and user interface level, but appears not to be taking advantage of the major open GIS testbed (GRASS).
GRASS was designed and developed in response to a perceived need for scientific GIS, specifically for environmental analysis, and the environmental management/protection of public lands.
Particularly in the pub/grass/grass4.1/documents directory, there are tutorials on advanced GRASS functions such as r.mapcalc (think of this as math applied to raster arrays), r.combine and r.weight (think of this as how to combine spatial submodels into one type of model), and others.
