This had me captivated for a good five minutes. I just kept watching how the patterns matched up, trying to parse out the connections in my brain.

Who knew an animation of a Rubik’s Cube and some corresponding concentric circles could be so stimulating?

I have absolutely no idea who created it. Tried to find out to no avail. (Happy to edit with a citation if someone knows.)

A Rubik’s Cube, depicted on the right as a three-dimensional rendering, is modeled on the left as a series of overlapping concentric circles. Each sub-face of the cube is a colored dot, and each rotation of the cube corresponds to a rotation of the dots along one of the circles. The dots always fall at the overlaps of two circles, representing that they can always be moved in two different directions.

Monohedral triangle tiling of the gyroid, which is the dual tessellation of a partial Cayley surface complex of the group:

<br/>G = ⟨ f₁,t₁ | f₁², t₁⁶, (f₁t₁)⁴, (f₁t₁f₁t₁⁻¹f₁t₁²)² ⟩<br/>

Ball of radius 21. (1/2)

In my journey to continue to find the good things in a world that’s breaking my heart on the daily, I found some beautifully-serene art.

Kinetic artist, Reuben Margolin uses skills in design, engineering, physics, electronics, and more. He creates motorized pieces that seem impossible. The one is called “Interlaced.”

A horizontal set of tall polished wooden planks that are arranged tightly together. Vertical wires pull them up and down in a pattern that makes them look like two sets of waves, gracefully dancing together. Then the shot zooms out to show the complicated array of gears and pulleys above them.

New era, new #introduction!

I started with #biology, realized I like #math along the road, and ended up loving #evolution.

After a BSc in the first, an MSc (and a half) in Bioinformatics/Computational biology (and applied math) I have started my #PhD in Ecological evolutionary modelling at @KorinnaAllhoff team at @unihohenheim!

I will be building models of biotic-interractions (antagonistic and/or mutualistic) between 2 and 3 species and check out emerging networks of these communities.

Looking forward to the adventure in this new landscape of possibilities of #programing ∩ #ecology ∩ #math!! :D
