#TilingTuesday ⚠️ New shape just dropped - eS_II
(ðat's just how it's called, if we just believe),
as u can clearly 🙃 see it is made from regular 9gons & irregular 🔯 to fill ðe gaps(or 6gons + irregular 3gons)
I have a question about the aperiodic spectre tile (or the hat/turtle).
I know that the proof of aperiodicity works by showing that the tiles must fit together in a hierarchical structure that eventually repeats itself at a larger scale. But the larger units aren't literally scaled copies of the spectre. I also know that there is some freedom as to how you draw the edges of the spectre.
Is there a way you can draw the edges that allows you to literally use spectres to cover a larger copy of themselves? If so, is this way of doing it unique?
Quite enjoying Ubuntu Budgie. Seems to be a little lighter than stock Ubuntu and with fewer issues? I don't know. I did a full install instead of upgrading in place. Luckily the laptop doesn't hold a lot of files.
Some of my previous attempts at #ricing#synthwave and #tiling window managers... I have to claim temporary insanity for some of it, but some of my machines still look like this, lol. (But not my work machine anymore! That got TOOO crazy)
There are few things which beats a wally close for making a great first impression. This one is in the Hyndland area of Glasgow. For those who don't know, a wally close is the communal entrance to a tenement which is lined with tiles, and often beautifully crafted ones.
Ammann-Beenker 𓂀 #tiling (using inflation😳)
ðere's exactly 1 vertex configuration for 3/4/5/6/7/8 polygons
Also apparently you can see ðis tiling by just looking at a 4d grid at ðe right angle 𓂀
I love these tile panels which you occasionally find in tenement closes. They're not as common as the individual decorative tiles or borders, but there are still quite a few around. This one comes from a block of tenements in the Cathcart area of Glasgow.
