BatWing

The BatWing sculpture represents a tangible way to approach mathematics. The sculpture, based on a triple periodic minimal surface, physically expresses the forces inside the structure to give visitors an appeal to applied geometry solutions.

The Penrose-Riemann Connection

The film is about discretization of patterns, colours and shapes. The animation illustrates that a 2D periodic pattern can be mapped seemless to a torus. Riemann surfaces are more suitable to display aperiodic patterns in three dimensions. Hence the Penrose tiling consisting of birds is shown on a helicoid.

Mirror rooms

Imagine two people who hate each other but unfortunately live in a room with walls covered by mirrors. How to place their guests in such a way that these will cannot see each other ? If you imagine that everybody stays on place and that people ar points, then we are talking about a mathematical billiard theory problem called a “blocking problem”.

A sculpture visualising the relation between visible matter and the “dark forces” in modern physics.
