A tessellation or tiling of the plane is a pattern of plane figures that fills the plane with no overlaps and no gaps. One may also speak of tessellations of parts of the plane or of other surfaces. Generalizations to higher dimensions are also possible. Tessellations frequently appeared in the art of M. C. Escher. Tessellations are seen throughout art history, from ancient architecture to modern art.

To blog or not to blog?
Might as well. Though it feels funny to me. Why would anyone care to read what I am thinking about? But then, why do I like reading other blogs? And the comments that follow... I like reading those as well. Still, it feels like self-aggrandizement. As if I think too highly of myself. Oooohhh. Maybe I do! Well, then. Reason enough for a blog. Nothing like the comments section to school me further in humility. Ok. I'll do it!

ReplyDeletehahaha! This is exciting because I no longer, have to say, "Tess what's going on?" I get it delivered straight to my inbox!
ReplyDeleteHa! I completely understand this conundrum, as you can read for yourself on MY blog.
ReplyDeleteI think it doesn't matter if anyone wants to read what you're thinking about (though...I do!), for me anyway, there's something therapeutic about spilling my thoughts out into the ether. And somehow, it actually motivates me to put my thoughts on "paper," and try to do it *well* since it may, after all, get an audience (even if it's full of fools and trolls).
My 2 cents! Blog away!
XO
I LOVE IT. BLOG AWAY!
