Through The Menger Originally uploaded by davebollinger"For those who may not have noticed, Processing's curveTangent() now works, and this opens the door to much easier camera pathing. Before, you ...

A particular fractal, called Menger’s Sponge, is all about surface appearances. It’s a purely theoretical shape that has infinite surface area and no volume whatsoever. And because of that, it doesn’t ...

Earlier today I set you the following puzzle, about the intriguing mathematical cube that is the Menger sponge. (To find out how to construct it, you can read the original post here.) When you slice ...

The Department of Mathematics plans to make a level-3 Menger sponge, using 48,000 donated business cards — an exercise in mathematics and creative paper folding. Using the power of multiplication, a ...

From Simons Science News (find original story here). The Menger Sponge, a well-studied fractal, was first described in the 1920s. The fractal is cube-like, yet its cross section is quite surprising.

It should surprise no one that MIT has an origami team whose goal is to create a third level version of a 3-D fractal known as a Menger Sponge, whose ultimate incarnation is a shape with zero volume ...

For today’s puzzle, let me introduce you to the Menger sponge, a fascinating object first described by the Austrian mathematician Karl Menger in 1926. We’ll get to the problem as soon as I explain ...
