Dan's blog of math/art projects based on geometric curiosities
My friend Dan and I collaborate on mathy art projects! I throw ideas at him; he does all the hard work of the math and art; I get him to write down what he did, and I help photograph and edit. The blog is a mix of pretty pictures and detailed technical explanations — something for everyone. (Well, for everyone who really, really likes geometry.) So far: polyhedra, paper models, tractrices, reaction-diffusion systems, and bonus musical creations. Comments/questions/suggestions welcome.

Yesss, part of the inspiration for finally starting to put this stuff online was Vi Hart's blog (recently-ish on Metafilter)!
