From Euclidean Space to Manifolds, The Power of Geometry

I don't know if people came across this guy Garrett Lisi?

his theory of Grand Unification resides in this mathematical geometry call the E8 which is a 8 dimensional geometry.

The fundamental particles and forces can be explained through the realignment of the 8 dimensional geometry. At this point my head exploded.

Other interesting geometries including Penrose Tiling. This is an aperiodic tile system which means it you can't deduce regularity from it as you add more tiles the regularity changes until infinity.



It appears that FOA have taken some inspiration on their facade design for Ravensbourn College from Sir Roger Penrose.
