A blog about satisfying my own curiosity.

Mostly about math, physics and computer science.
But also rendering, Supermag and modular origami.

Geometry : Geomag Models

People have been making Geomag models for a long time (at the very least 15 years maybe 20). I dedicate this page to the Geomag community where I have gathered hundreds of the fantastic creations they have built and that I could replicate after roaming through the internet.

Geometry : Polyhedra on the Internet

A lot of great people have been sharing polyhedra stuff on the internet. This is a tribute to them where I have gathered websites, pages, illustrations, pieces of software, toys that I came upon over the years. If you think yours is missing, write to me please.

Geometry : Near-miss Johnson solids

The goal is to gather near miss solids found by people across the internet and display them here, in this amazing interactive gallery !

Geometry : Voxels and Cube Puzzles

Voxel models are nice so I made an interactive viewer to help people reproduce some of my original cube-based modular origami models.

Origami part 7 : Polycubes

From a simple origami module, you can make thousands of polycube shapes and customize them to your heart's content !

Origami part 6 : Archimedean solids

During the summer, I got my hand on 4 sets of origami papers with 10 colors each so I spend some time building modular origami version of Archimedean solids.

Origami part 5 : Johnson Coronas

From the Johnson solids, at the end of the list are the coronas, I made a modular origami version of them using tracing paper quite some time ago now.

Rendering : IES format and ray files for lights

In the lighting industry, the light emitted by a luminaire is either described by an intensity file or by a set of rays.

Geometry : Structures made with Dodecahedra or Icosahedra

What kind of structures would you be able to build if you had a few hundred or thousand dodecahedra or icosahedra at hand ? A surprising answer is Golden Rhombic Solids among other things like tree and flower like structures.

Geometry : Polycubes

Once again, I am making a viewer, this time the challenge is about handling very large datasets of polycubes. Everything started from a YouTube video, what a surprise !

Misc : Bad Apple Voxel Animation

Running the Bad Apple video on any device is an entertaining challenge on the internet. I had the idea when working on the polycube viewer.

Geometry : Vertex topology in 3D space

I've already tackled the problem in 2D. Here is the rest of the story in one more dimension. It is unexpectedly simple ! Yeah !
