Greece is full of wonderful new things and wonderful old things. But when WE become old things, will our ruins also be tourist attractions? **Sources and extra info below!!** me on twitter: http://www.twitter.com/tweetsauce on instagram: http://www.instagram.com/electricpants Humorous/interesting videos about how future archeologists might interpret us: VIDEO: “Beatles 3000”: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Z2vU8M6CYI VIDEO: […]
Raymond Aschheim – The 36 Vertex Type
Love our work? Help us continue our research by joining our giving circle. Even just $1/month helps us further our cause: https://quantumgravityresearch.givingcircles.io Raymond Aschheim presents the “D6” family of icosahedral quasicrystals. Emphasis is put on one member of the family, which fills space using only tetrahedrons–6 ‘golden’ tetrahedrons whose edges […]
Dugan Hammock – Visualizing the 600-Cell
Love our work? Help us continue our research by joining our giving circle. Even just $1/month helps us further our cause: https://quantumgravityresearch.givingcircles.io Mathematician/geometer Dugan Hammock of Quantum Gravity Research shows us a visualization of the 4-dimensional 600-Cell projected to 3D object (further projected, technically, to 2D on his computer screen.)

Fang Fang – Constructing the 57-Group Quasiparticle
Love our work? Help us continue our research by joining our giving circle. Even just $1/month helps us further our cause: https://quantumgravityresearch.givingcircles.io Fang Fang, research scientist at Quantum Gravity Research, shows how the 57-Group–a structure that we propose as a quasiparticle–is constructed, and demonstrates how this quasiparticle can propagate along […]
