In 2005 Margaret and Christine Wertheim "adopted Dr. Taimina's techniques and elaborated upon them to develop a whole taxonomy of reef-life forms... ...The basic process for making these forms is a simple pattern or algorithm, which on its own produces a mathematically pure shape, but by varying or mutating this algorithm, endless variations and permutations of shape and form can be produced."
Its a math /life /art mash-up that my grandma would have loved.
