Thanks to Paulo #Virtuani for his beautiful interview in his book on the Rubik's cube, titled "Sei facce di genialità: il cubo di Rubik e la sua storia"! In Italian, published by Baldini+Castoldi.

I had the idea of #CubeHarmonic in 2013 while living and studying in #Paris, and then I developed it in collaboration with #Japanese engineers and mathematicians: the research group of Prof. Yoshifumi Kitamura (Tohoku University, Sendai), and Prof. Takashi Yoshino (Toyo University, Tokyo), both mentioned in the interview.

There is a reference to my current work as researcher at the #Consiglio Nazionale delle Ricerche, #ICAR-CNR.

50 years of Rubik's cube! In this article by Siobhan Roberts, published on the New York Times, there is also a reference to my #CubeHarmonic:
