The next morning the sky was clear, but very new rock formations had materialized overnight, all around Voronoi Plaza in Downtown, even in front of the Lighthouse. When I went out toContinue reading “Frieze Tables – Through the Mathemalchemy Looking Glass”

If You Give a Mouse Some Symmetries
In recent years, I have been increasingly absorbed by representing different symmetry structures in various fiber arts: knitting, embroidery, beadwork, and so forth. The underlying mathematics is fascinating and often interacts with each handcraft in subtle ways.
The Mandelbrot Bakery
Discover the mathematical inspiration underpinning the creation of the Mandelbrot Bakery.
One of Marjorie Rice’s tilings, symmetry, Vladimir Arnold’s cat, dynamical systems and many more mathematical concepts are represented in this charming bakery.
