Leading today's New York Times obituaries —
— is that of Nassos Daphnis, a painter of geometric abstractions
who in 1995 had an exhibition at a Leo Castelli gallery
titled "Energies in Outer Space." (See pictures here.)
Daphnis died, according to the Times, on November 23.

There is more than one way
to look at a cube.
Some context— this morning's previous post (Apollo's 13,
on the geometry of the 3×3×3 cube), yesterday's noon post
featuring the 3×3 square grid (said to be a symbol of Apollo),
and, for connoisseurs of the Ed Wood school of cinematic art,
a search in this journal for the phrase "Plan 9."
You can't make this stuff up.
