Deep Structure
This four-inch, 3D-printing sculpture is based
on five nested forms, each of which is a modification of a 31-zone zonohedron.
This is made of plaster, impregnated with cyanoacrylic, so is quite strong.
The material shows light and shadow beautifully. Here is a close-up image
which shows the texture of the surfaces:
The title alludes to my long-ago linguistics life, as a student
of Noam Chomsky. I have drafted
a paper that includes a description of the geometry and the algorithm
behind this piece.
