Ustwo has created a work of art in its Escher-inspired puzzle game, Monument Valley. Designer Ken Wong gives CNET an inside look at where it came from. Michelle Starr is CNET's science editor, and she ...

Fractal geometry investigates complex shapes that exhibit self-similarity across multiple scales, while spectral analysis focuses on the study of the eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of operators, most ...

Students will discover the ways that fractal geometry interrelates artistic, scientific, and mathematical approaches to investigating natural forms, patterns and systems. Students will develop an ...

Fifty years ago, “fractal” was born. In a 1975 book, the Polish-French-American mathematician Benoit B. Mandelbrot coined the term to describe a family of rough, fragmented shapes that fall outside ...

We’re finding infinitely complex, self-similar shapes all over creation. And we’re just getting started. The world is full of beautiful geometry. It’s something we start teaching our youngest children ...

It has long been observed that many plants produce leaves, shoots, or flowers in spiral patterns. Cauliflower provides a unique example of this phenomenon, because those spirals repeat at several ...

Scientists take a crack at recreating the hypnotic fractal spirals of the Romanesco cauliflower. Credit...Evan Sung for The New York Times Supported by By Sabrina Imbler Monks once hoped to turn lead ...
