Sand Mandala Base

April 8th, 2013 Written by | Comments Off on Sand Mandala Base

Next time you’re in Baruch’s Vertical Campus, I encourage you to drop by the Mathematics Department Office on the 6th floor. Newly installed on the wall, in a utilitarian position behind the photocopier, is the base of a Sand Mandala which was made at Baruch last September by visiting Tibetan monks.

The base is not the mandala itself — that was swept away at the end of the day. The base is an embodiment of the mathematics underlying the mandala’s construction. It’s what’s left of the mandala after you’ve swept away the sand, the color, the decoration, the ritual — and the mandala itself. It’s nothing, and yet it’s something — it’s symmetry.

Symmetries in nature

DSCN1770This Painted Trillium, which I photographed a few years ago in the Catskill Mountains, has D3 symmetry type. Lots of flowers have rotational symmetries … what other mandalas occurring in nature do you like? Any natural border patterns?

Ceiling Design

Saw this on the ceiling at the Rubin. I believe it's either an example of the 1g or 12 border pattern (I'm leaning toward the former).

Mandala-esque Door Design

April 3rd, 2013 Written by | Comments Off on Mandala-esque Door Design

Found this mandala design on the doors of Barnes & Noble in Union Square. It reminded me of the Medicine Buddha Mandala a bit because of the squares and the green (nature reminiscent) coloring.
