Monday Love to your Miracle Metaphors
“ Miracles do not, in fact, break the laws of nature.”
~ C.S. Lewis
How do you define your garden? Do you consider your workplace your atelier? Where exactly is the edge of your dance floor anyway?

#Tensegrity - Wikipedia
"Because of these patterns, no structural member experiences a bending moment and there are no shear stresses within the system. This can produce exceptionally strong and rigid structures for their mass and for the cross section of the components.
These principles collectively enable tensegrity structures to achieve a balance of strength, resilience, and flexibility, making the concept widely applicable across disciplines including architecture, robotics, and biomechanics."

@ark_brut A wonky six-strut tensegrity icosahedron. A first attempt that took way longer than expected

@ark_brut Another approach is to roll paper into a tube and cut notches. I might try this later https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=65BM4K1k77U
@ark_brut A bit beyond my current skills, so I looked for something much simpler: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/g0-eD9c5uog. I used four lolly sticks and two rubber bands lying around the kitchen.
The only tricky part was cutting the notches with a craft knife and a self-healing mat.
I might try other tensegrity structures, but some need holes like the bed slat structure which is a step up in terms of equipment and skills.
