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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

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.

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 ...
