Acknowledgments

cy is the result of hundreds of hours of work (and, perhaps, hundreds more.) I would like to thank the following people for their efforts to support me in this project:

• A.J., with particular gratitude for contributing the name taro and a few of the original ideas that inspired cy
• S.K., for pushing me to pursue this bizarre blend of art and utility
• V.P., for being a persistent source of inspiration
• B.P., for being a sounding board in the early days when I had no idea whether cy was even possible
• And countless others who noticed what I was doing when I worked on cy in coffee shops, on airplanes, and elsewhere
