The Magic Theorem

A greatly-expanded, much-abridged edition of The Symmetries of Things

Hands on!

There’s lots to do and explore with the Magic Theorem!

For the best intuition, there’s no substitute for playing with a symmetrical drawing program, such as Jeff Weeks’ KaleidoPaint, Jürgen Richter-Gerharts’ iOrnament, or our own Kaleidesign. Or come into MoMath and check out the PolyPaint exhibit!
