Looks like it will be right up your alley. Come to Baltimore! http://bridgesmathart.org/bridges-2012/

They look great (must be a lot of work to make them) and wish I could have a few for one of my photo-shoots to hang from the ceiling.

How funny that you found that book today, of all days. I’m sure that making mathematical models isn’t only a girl thing, but something makes me want to hope that it is, especially when you consider the teenage alternatives for girls. That’s so interesting that your partner made them too and hung them in her bedroom – does she have any photos of them? If so, she should post them!

I was sorting through my reference books this morning and I found the exact same book in amongst my stuff. It is a later paperback version, admittedly, but it’s the same book! I gave it back to my partner at lunchtime, and then a few hours later I read about the H M Cundy & A P Rollett book on your blog. Perhaps it’s a synchronicity event, but then again, maybe it’s just random events. Ah the beauty of science!

My partner said that she used to make dodecahedron’s when she was a girl and hang them from her bedroom ceiling. Maybe making mathematical models is a girl thing!

In one of the comments I read that they make you feel good by looking at them. I guess this is because they visualize the laws of nature. How about producing new ones? If industry did it (if it is not a sacrilege), they might be offered at a decent price and maybe sell like mad.
