Back from bicycle touring in Denmark. I finished a bunch of shapes for my infinite #Penrose tiling and a dark blue/purple single of @venite 's fibers (and a bit of my own). Had the purple/raspberry one finished before leaving so dizzed one fauxlag to make a single on my wheel. Bought local yarns and also two little tools at the Jelling museum shop.

#Penrose #Tiling is a fascinating geometric pattern discovered by physicist Roger Penrose that covers an infinite plane completely without ever repeating itself.

Instead of traditional translational symmetry, it possesses a unique five-fold rotational symmetry and forms structures known as quasicrystals, which mirror patterns found in rare natural minerals.

Going to see what Penrose had to say about physics, the universe, the human mind and AI in 1989. The 80s was also a time of AI hype and promises of replication of human intelligence "within a few years". I know the book is speculative and flawed, but that's part of what makes it interesting. I think the central thesis is that human consciousness is not algorithmic and cannot be replicated on Turing machines. #Penrose #AI #Book

#KnowledgeBit: The #Penrose #Stairs are a two-dimensional optical illusion that depicts a staircase that forms a continuous loop. The stairs make four 90-degree turns as they ascend or descend.

When viewed from a specific angle, it gives the illusion that the stairs are continuously ascending or descending. However, the structure is physically impossible to exist in three-dimensional space.

Noto un dejo de ironía en esa mentecilla súper ágil del señor #Penrose 😁😁
