  1. July 2024. A terrace in Istria. Tiles half-laid, some already fixed, a template that doesn't match the floor, an unanswered voice call from Brussels. 480 limestone pieces, CNC-cut from a shape proven mathematically a few months before. One constraint: no tile can be flipped.

    Three months, a long hot summer to find out if the pattern held.

  2. So I tried implementing ðe Weierstrass-Mandelbrot function coz I mean it's called ðe Weierstrass-Mandelbrot function I had to check it out 𓅱
    apparently it's a lot like my weierstrass-derived aperiodic "tiling" posts but in ðe uncanny valley towards ðe terrain direction in abstract concept space 🤔🤔🤔

    has weierstrass :dodecahedron::icosahedron: also 3d function when what when symmetry happens ur here's 𓅱𓅱𓅱

  6. have you considered taking out a loan & moving to central Greenland to become a copper prospector but only working around 11 sets of parallel lines 5km apart?

  7. Both approaches reveal how sensing and shaping are the same process. When you slow down to notice the patterns you're already making, you discover you're already participating in systems others can enter and transform.

  9. When it comes to debugging, I have a bad habit of sometimes guessing parameters when I think that all that prevents me getting the output I expect is something simple, like an incorrect sign. Invariably I end up wasting far too much time making increasingly complicated guesses, when a few minutes thought and some pen and paper would have revealed the bug. I don't recommend this habit to anyone, but in one instance it led me to discover a series of tilings that I probably wouldn't have found otherwise.

    Take a tiling of turtle tiles (a version of the chiral aperiodic monotile), throw away the tiles with less frequent handedness, and flip the other tiles about the axis shown in the first image. This doesn't produce a new tiling, since there will be overlaps. However, the tiles can be grouped in roughly triangular clusters of 1, 3 or 6 tiles, all with the same orientation modulo \(120^\circ\), and the tiles in each cluster don't overlap after flipping. In addition, the clusters of flipped tiles can be translated in a consistent manner to avoid overlaps, leaving a partial tiling whose gaps all have the same shape - the 'rooster'.

  10. I have a question about the aperiodic spectre tile (or the hat/turtle).

    I know that the proof of aperiodicity works by showing that the tiles must fit together in a hierarchical structure that eventually repeats itself at a larger scale. But the larger units aren't literally scaled copies of the spectre. I also know that there is some freedom as to how you draw the edges of the spectre.

    Is there a way you can draw the edges that allows you to literally use spectres to cover a larger copy of themselves? If so, is this way of doing it unique?

  11. Whoa... #aperiodic tiling and quantum computing error correction?
