I’ve added several designs to my Zazzle store. They’re based on the concept hinted at in my last post.

Do any of these 27 designs inspire you to buy a coffee cup?

This image, which I made a few years ago, is based on a tiling of the hyperbolic plane with triangles whose angles are π/2, π/3, π/7. Other than the 7, which can be changed to any higher integer, I couldn’t vary these numbers without ruining the effect. Recently I thought of a simpler, and thus more general, way to generate the ribbons.
My strip representation of the hyperbolic plane inspired Vladimir Bulatov to explore weirder conformal mappings thereof. (Conformal means angles are preserved.)

A space-filling path through this square is matched to an analogous path through the color-cube.
I had this idea in mind for years but the algorithm for Hilbert’s curve defeated me; then I stumbled on Steve Witham’s Python code, and whipped up this doodle in half an hour.
