Y'all ever just tat a cube? (In progress, obviously). Also, I'm tatting continuously!! (ie, I'm not making individual square units and joining them).

This is my 3D take on tattingbythebay's "magic square" variation on Mary Konior's "patchwork" square.

Magic squares are cool. I decided to make a cube with a magic square pattern because cubes are made of squares. You can "path" a cube's faces if you cut them into triangle halves.

I don't have a good two dimensional representation of this but this might make sense to someone:

You start at the squiggly line on the right and follow it left. Or vice versa.

This is great because magic squares are actually made of units that are this exact shape: triangles (specifically, right isoceles triangles).

Four magic square units makes one square. You may be thinking, this math doesn't add up! How is it both two and four units that make a square?

Here's the pattern (from the article above):

See how the unit is a right isoceles triangle? If you join four along their shorter sides, you get a square. Joining two along the longer sides also gives you a square, just smaller.

Magical!

Anyway I've completed the dark blue portion of the diagram above, and am working on the first purple section.

I need to find a clever way to stiffen the whole thing. I don't think the usual starching will do. Trying to think of a clever way to incorporate wire...

If you're interested in this, give it a try! I'm having to adapt the corners of the triangle units -- left the third blue unit unfinished and used two split rings to start the first purple triangle. I suspect similar things may happen later on, and we'll see if the pattern is completeable.

I do suspect that magic square patterns can simply be adapted into magic cubes.

“Down at the Crossroads” (2024)

Meet the Devil (Horned God) at the centre of the Crossroads, the centre of Reality, the Centre of Eternity, the centre of Now.

I Love any White Ultra Magnus Repaints with his own Unique Blaster

(And Not those Lazy White Magnus Repaints that came with Optimus Prime's Gun)

...woah...this is...something else...

Lee Sallows Stair Square

Via the Futility Closet.

a magic square depicted as some sort of '3D- distribution plot'

I played around with a simple magic square and the Lo-shu-technique - and I recognized a simple pattern:

- The average value of this magic square is at the center [5]

- The sum of each row and column and diagonal is 15 - 3 times the 'average' in this case.

There also appear 'symmetries' - see the violet writing: 4 [1 less than 5] and 6 [1 more than 5] - as well as the other colors: blue [ 3 [2 less than 5] and 7 [2more than 5]... etc...

somehow this rather unconventional and dreamy mind wandering led me to drawing this tiny 3D plot...

I have my Autobots Christmas Caroling

Magic Square Light of Justice(Optimus Prime).

Pretty cool Legends scale Prime!

Magic square (from Céline et Julie vont en bateau, 1974)

They need to STOP being Cheap by giving White Ultra Magnus Repaints the Same Gun and Trailer as Optimus Prime

(i do know there are very few white magnus repaints that do have his trailer armour and even a unique blaster too)

Nearly there.
