Another work by Chaim Goodman-Straus

“Feet 32x”

This illustrates the discrete group 32x, in the Conway-Thurston orbifold notation; the image was created from a scan of the artist’s foot, then manipulated within Mathematica, for the forthcoming book “The Symmetries of Things”, coauthored with John H. Conway and Heidi Burgiel.
