The New York TImes reports this evening that
"Jon Underwood, Founder of Death Cafe Movement,"
died suddenly at 44 on June 27.
This journal on that date linked to a post titled "The Mystic Hexastigm."
A related remark on the complete 6-point from Sunday, April 28, 2013 —
(See, in Veblen and Young's 1910 Vol. I, exercise 11,
page 53: "A plane section of a 6-point in space can
be considered as 3 triangles perspective in pairs
from 3 collinear points with corresponding sides
meeting in 3 collinear points." This is the large
Desargues configuration. See Classical Geometry
in Light of Galois Geometry.)
This post was suggested, in part, by the philosophical ruminations
of Rosalind Krauss in her 2011 book Under Blue Cup . See
Sunday's post Perspective and Its Transections . (Any resemblance
to Freud's title Civilization and Its Discontents is purely coincidental.)
