Date: Fri, 15 Aug 1997 17:38:13 +0100 The Rubik Gallery is a website with Java Rubik puzzles. There are dodecahedrons, icosahedrons, cubes, etc etc. The software can support any shape at all, twisting in any way imaginable, provided the axes all meet at one point. I'd like to add some more intricate and strange shapes of puzzle, and before I sit down to bust my brain over the geometry, I want to ask the list members for ideas. You guys are mathematical geniuses and I'm sure some of you already have ideas for wierd puzzles that will never see the light of day in physical form; perhaps ones with Penrose tiles as the facelets, perhaps ones that twist in non-intuitive ways to create surprising shapes.If you'd like us all to see, twist and solve your puzzle, please tell me about it.
