In the Greek tradition Plato's Timaeus represents air as the state of matter It is a regular octahedron with 8 equal triangular faces and has three axes of symmetry of order four; six axes of symmetry of order two; four axes of symmetry of order three, nine planes of symmetry, three containing each group of coplanar edges, and six perpendicular to each pair of parallel edges; and a center of symmetry I WANT to feel their beauty and think about the complexity of their faces CHOOSE to make them virtual because for the first time in history and thanks to software and hardware it is possible to make them in three dimensions mathematically exact These works are also offered in limited editions for sizes larger than those presented here. Ask for prices and sizes I recommend sound effects to enhance the effect
