DESCRIPTION:Sometimes\, one writes code to answer an important scientific q
 uestion. On other occasions\, code is developed with some economic interes
 t in mind\, legitimate or otherwise. And then there are situations where s
 omething else is going on. This work\, which I call _June Gloom_\, is just
  that: something else. Specifically\, it is about producing pretty picture
 s\, inspired by very real analog art and executed by using a somewhat abst
 ract toy model for magnetism from statistical mechanics. In my presentatio
 n\, I will show how we can use Monte Carlo techniques to perform physicall
 y accurate computer simulations. The results obtained from these simulatio
 ns are then turned into both static as well as interactive visualizations 
 using Matplotlib.
