Looks nice, and it would be great to use as graphics on the sagemath web page.
What IMHO is lacking is that it is too complicated. A *logo* is ideally recognizable at 16x16px (e.g. favicon) and that pretty much excludes an icosahedron. Its just too busy for that purpose. Maybe a tetrahedron would work. There is a reason why its the Nike swoosh and not the 20 Nike swooshes.
