Preparation
READ: Paper Scheduled for Discussion: ES01: "Escher Sphere Construction Kit"
Paper Presentation and Discussion
Background:
Main Points:
- What is special about the approach described in this paper ?
- Why was this particular approach chosen ?
- What other approaches could have been taken ?
- What are the pros and cons compared to other approaches ?
What is Next ?
- Escher tilings on tori -- how would you approach this ?
- Escher tilings on (symmetyrical) hyperbolic surfaces -- how would you approach this ?
- (Potential for a course project)
Monogram Cube Designs
- Look at submitted designs
- Comments and discussions on structure of monogram cubes
- Are you trying to make a "positive" or a "negative" ?
- Will your design work as is ??
- Questions about Phase_2 ?
