• From a series of original snowflake designs ©1989
• Based upon the geometry of the Truncated Icosahedron, a.k.a. the Soccer Ball

I coined the word "geocube" because this design (assembled from a unique modular element)  is actually based upon the geometry of the cube.

Could be worn as a pendant (lanyard not included)

See my New Spring Loaded Dice:

• 60-sided die with faces numbered from 1 to 60.
• This design is based upon the geometry of the Pentagonal Hexecontahedron

• A variation of this design could be seen here: http://www.shapeways.com/model/148752/the_rosetta_dice__1__60_.html

• Note: The unique construction method that I have used in assembling (piece by piece) this model is based upon a Theorem on the Duality of Regular Polyhedra that I have demonstrated in 1981– while creating and building, by hand, a series of polyhedral sculptures. For more info, see:

Inner diameter is 22mm (e-mail oopresco@gmail.com for a custom size and/or engraving on band)

• I created these model(s) (my artistic interpretation of the actual New Roosevelt Island Tram) to mark the Inauguration of the new Roosevelt Island Tram and my 70th Birthday (both events are taking place in November of 2010).
