Bathsheba

I'm a sculptor, mostly in metal, thinking about science, math and biomorphic fantasies. I show here and at http://bathsheba.com. Welcome!

The best triply periodic minimal surface ever!

I put a bigger one here.

A pendant for metal printing.  I have trouble believing that these are photos and not renders...something about this object feels very unlikely.

A Klein bottle.
Warning: this Klein bottle does not open beers, it just looks cute. 
The Klein Bottle Opener is here on Shapeways or here on Bathsheba.com.
A bigger bottle is here.

Another projection of the 4-dimensional hypercube, this one close to vertex-centered. I love the shape of its hull: almost a rhombic dodecahedron, but skewed just enough to keep the central vertices from meeting.
The more usual projection is here, other polytopes are here.

A theorem walks into a bar...
The Klein Bottle is a mathematical joke: a surface with only one side. This one feels just right in your hand and opens bottles with ease and style. Built to last in steel, it's the perfect touch for any math fan's kitchen.

Yes, it really works!

Klein not-a-bottle-opener is here.

There are six regular convex polytopes in 4D, which are analogous to the five Platonic solids in 3D. This is the fifth, the hyperdodecahedron, a remarkably beautiful object brought to my attention by George Hart.

Here it's shown in a Schlegel diagram so you can see all 120 dodecahedral cells, though most are transformed by perspective: in this projection, the only regular dodecahedra are the biggest one on the outside and the tiniest one at the center.

A bigger model is here.

A sculpture. Contrary to popular belief, it is not an algorithmic object.

A pendant for metal printing.  I think this may be the most adorable thing ever.

Found on an alien beach. Left by what creature?

A bigger model is here.

There are six regular convex polytopes in 4D, which are analogous to the five Platonic solids in 3D. This is the third, the hypercube or tesseract, in the classic projection into 3-space, showing its 8 cubic faces in a nice straightforward visualization.
A different projection is here.
