Description

Volume 12 of the Math-Art series. This 3-part book is a visual exploration of knot geometry and ethnomathematics to celebrate the similarities between abstract geometry and unique cultures worldwide. Starting at latitude 0º, longitude 0º, the author set sail (virtually) westward at an average of 400 (nautical) knots a week to fully cover its circumference and explore 1 new knot each week for an entire year. Part I, is the art portfolio extracted from the geometry models, part II is a detailed record of the original geometry used to create the artwork, and part III, is the weekly windmap log showing the project’s positioning, actual winds and currents in real time. Each book includes 52 illustrations, notes and references.
