Book Synopsis M.C. Escher Kaleidocycles by : Doris Schattschneider
Book excerpt: This one-of-a-kind publication explores M. C. Escher's periodic drawings and their suitability as surface designs for Kaleidocycles -- three-dimensional rings formed from chains of tetrahedra (four-sided geometric forms). Includes seventeen Kaleidocycle models, all printed with repeating patterns from Escher's drawings, and a lavishly illustrated (over eighty illustrations and diagrams) book giving assembly instructions.
