Why platonic Perspectives?

Welcome to my blog.

I've entitled it "platonic perspectives" because the dominant thread of this blog will play with concepts alluding to the platonic solids.

The graphic deals with the triangulated platonic solids of which I am most fond. The two missing are the cube and the duodecahedron.

The reason I am focusing on the triangulated platonic solids is that they are structurally integral--they retain their shape when reduced to being composed of segments representing their edges and joined at the vertices.

The number of possible solids approach the infinite. This I acknowledge, however it is possible to discover patterns among solids and to classify them on the properties the members of a pattern have.
