Asset Overview

This 3D model is related to a cauliflower fractal, julia set generated from quadratic equation f(z) = z^2+1/4. I won the Quanta's 3-D folding contest in 2017 by folding this shape from a flat sheet of paper. https://www.quantamagazine.org/20170105-test-your-mathematical-sculpting-skills/ https://www.facebook.com/QuantaNews/posts/610360859161510 Detailed mathematical backgrounds can be found from [2016] Laura DeMarco, Kathryn Lindsey, Convex shapes and harmonic caps https://arxiv.org/abs/1602.02327
