An (amazingly simple) aperiodic monotile has been discovered by David Smith, Joseph Myers (@jsm28), Craig Kaplan (@csk), and Chaim Goodman-Strauss. It&#39;s literally four copies of a third of a hexagon glued together. Details at https://cs.uwaterloo.ca/~csk/hat/

New video, on mechanisms that illustrate the duality between the cube and the octahedron! Here&#39;s one of them: a linkage with fabric panels designed by @sabetta. Full video at https://youtu.be/T9BNMLFHXUw
