Spirals of triangles crinkle into intricate structures
Ivars Peterson
A field of triangles crumples and twists into a wavy crystalline sea. A
crystal ball sprouts spiraling, labyrinthine passages. Faceted bricks
stack snugly into a tidy, compact structure. Underlying each of these
objects is a remarkable geometric shape made up of a sequence of
triangles--a spiral polygon that resembles a seahorse's tail.
