Another super quick, fun update for sacred geometry enthusiasts!
- Check out this fun, animated articulated model of Leonardo da Vinci‘s “Stella Octangula” (a.k.a. stellated octahedron or star tetrahedron – fold-up model here) making a cameo appearance as a holographic projector on a sci-fi Paul McCartney music video which seems inspired by Princess Leia’s classic hologram “Help me Obi-wan” plea.
- The image above shows the uncommon 11-sided (hendecagon) geometry from a lovely slideshow gallery of images from this article: India’s New Parametric Temple to Reinterpret Vernacular Design in Koppur.
- Starting with a clear explanation of how a flower might optimize seed spacing geometrically (with insightful animations) this Numberphile video shows why the Golden Ratio is so irrational.
