Antikythera Mechanism: an inspiring suggestion When Ingrid suggested having the Antikythera Mechanism somewhere in the Knotical scene, I dove for the chance to recreate one. Information and photographs of the pieces are prevalent these days. So much more is known now about the profound relics since scientists have made significant progress in figuring out the device’sContinue reading “Antikythera Mechanism”

Knotical – Fabrication
The design of the overall Ocean in the Knotical Scene is due to Tasha Pruitt and Dominique Ehrmann, with Tasha taking care of the execution of numerous, painstaking details. For some components she was assisted by Kathy Peterson, Faye Goldman, Sam Pezzimenti, Li-Mei Lim and Ingrid Daubechies, who used crochet, bead and origami techniques toContinue reading “Knotical – Fabrication”
Knotical – Through the Mathemalchemy Looking Glass
The turbhoversailboat is back in Knotilus Bay again. The engineer was not wholly displeased with the performance of the new turbine-sails, but as he walked away one could hear him mutter about maybe another round of modeling. Oblivious to his concerns, the two Fish[H]erons that make up the crew have settled in for a niceContinue reading “Knotical – Through the Mathemalchemy Looking Glass”
