or, synthesising an image from some text (like a CRSid) and then finding the prime? as I said, it might be fun for outreach days, when young kids can come along and get their name converted into a prime number!
I feel like image from text would be a bit easier, since we could just determine a character set (maybe A-Z, 0-9, and space), and lookup the corresponding digits without a need for image processing
there is already a python package to do what we discussed @valentin-imbach @jmb280cam

this prime drawing looks nice, but perhaps we can use Julia to do it a bit smarter /more efficient than what can be done in Python?
