Playing With Polyhedra Creating Beauty from Obsession
Nat Alison at React Conf 2018
The Polyhedra Viewer (polyhedra.tessera.li) is an interactive web app that explores the relationships between convex polyhedra. Users can select operations and watch as shapes expand, twist, and contract according to mathematical rules. Join me on my journey taking my lifelong obsession with these simple shapes into a work that is accessible to students, teachers, and artists. Learn about my inspirations and struggles in using React to create this intricate application and what I learned from working on this solo project.
