I greatly admire your brilliance. Personally, I am lost when it comes to Math and dimensions. But, I am touched by your Art. Mahalo for sharing. :)

@Wizard: Yes, that’s just how the math terminology divides it up. The techniques start getting very different around and above 4 dimensions.

@Dave: I have a student doing a project on those magnets!

@Kathy: yes, it can spin around. Here is a video that shows it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qJkvlnaDLic

I am drawn to the red Round Klein Bottle. Does the chain mounting allow it is spin or move?
Mr. Segerman’s art definitely makes one think.

What kills me about all this amazing math and geometry related artwork is, you can do the same thing with “contraband” magnets

so… 4th dimensional is not higher dimensional? that’s news to me. We in the 2.5th dimension of Secondlife know Henry Segerman as Seifert Surface, where he has also more than made his mark.

Incredible achievement!!! Congratulations! Math and art have lived together for centuries, but this is really cool:), and goes a long way beyond the imagination:)
