Description

A 52 illustration two-part book on the exploration of minimal surfaces. Part 1 explores the surface from an artistic perspective, and part 2 visually reproduces the equations that stand in their own right as a beautiful expression of pure geometry. Each book includes notes from an informal work-in-progress diary and references directing the reader to the images’ original mathematical source. Both sides complement each other in helping us appreciate better these unrivaled expressions of our environment found in nature, from butterflies to black holes, and studied in statistics, material sciences, and architecture.
