Hi!
This is a neat video that shows the power of blender (geometry nodes) to
visualize math.
To illustrate how aperiodic Penrose tilings can be viewed as a
projection from a 5 dimensional to a 2 dimensional space.

Thanks for that. Also, creating weighted bones for animation... Very
fun. Actually, I need to get back into my python code I created for
blender. Fwiw it generated the following fractal:

Python and Blender = Pretty Cool!

:^)

Iirc, my code created the fractal out of a bunch of objects, then I
condensed all of them into a single mesh. A single object instead of
multiple objects. Pretty cool. Blender is nice. Mixed with python as a
quick scripting language for it is even better. I don't not necessarily
like python, but I will gladly use it in Blender.

Cool.. I have a sphere version:

stop posting imbecilities, you fucking moron. You are uneducated like shit.
Go out demand your education money back, you cretin. You capitalist fuckers
are born cretins. Probably because of vaccines. Your mother was vaccinated
by bill gaytes, you are vaccinated at birth by bill gaytes. You fucking
imbecile.

Oh, that's nice. Can you move a camera into the fractal structure? Here
is an inside shit of my sketchfab experiment:

Ahhh man. I meant inside shot. Argh! Damn typos!

Sorry sobriquet. ;^o

You can look from inside one of the spheres, but that wouldn't yield an
interesting view. By zooming in you can see the insides of the spheres
where they intersect the bounding box.
I hope that more features will become available when desmos 3d is no
longer in the beta stage of development.

Create little port holes in the sphere tangents so one can fly around
within the structure?
