[Origami] Origami sighting: Five-intersecting tetrahedra
Adam Savage (of MythBusters fame) and Matt Parker (Standup Mathematician/ numberphile) collaborated in their attempt to show how to build a polyhedra model, based on an origami model (Tom Hull’s five intersecting tetrahedra) that someone named Polly apparently folded for Matt. They discuss the maths, symmetry, logic, and ultimate frustrations of building the model in one day. The long YouTube video is well worth one’s time to watch, IMHO. But then again, I enjoyed vicariously geeking out with them as they plan, with excitement, to build their colorful non-paper model. https://youtu.be/s_F4uD8wAs0 Enjoy, Belle Belle
