Hi folks,

My friend Edmund Harriss recently
published a mathematical coloring book with Alex Bellos
, and I contributed an image using MagicTile
code.

The image they used is the stereographic projection of the
(532)-triangle Coxeter
complex
,
but depending on how one colors it, you can produce the pattern of either
the dodecahedral or the icosahedral "superchop" puzzles :D

Thought I would share links to the coloring book here, in case any of you
might want one.

Europe: Snowflake Seashell Star
(already released)
US: Patterns of the Universe

(coming
out Dec. 1)

I got my copy recently, and I think the book turned out really nice! It
would make a great holiday gift.

Cheers,
Roice
