Space Wars:  Sith Pyramid vs. Jedi Cube

Filed under: General — Tags: , — m759 @ 11:18 am

For the Sith Pyramid, see posts tagged Pyramid Game.
For the Jedi Cube, see posts tagged Enigma Cube
and cube-related remarks by Aitchison at Hiroshima.

This  post was suggested by two events of May 16, 2019 —
A weblog post by Frans Marcelis on the Miracle Octad
Generator of R. T. Curtis (illustrated with a pyramid),
and the death of I. M. Pei, architect of the Louvre pyramid.

That these events occurred on the same date is, of course,
completely coincidental.

Perhaps Dan Brown can write a tune to commemorate
the coincidence.

Natural physical  transformations of square or cubical arrays
of actual physical cubes (i.e., building blocks) correspond to
natural algebraic  transformations of vector spaces over GF(2).
This was apparently not previously known.

is to enter a world full of melodrama, mysticism and
grandiose eschatological visions."
