"Does Uranus have an aurora?"
New York Times Prose Style
By Clay Risen
Thomas S. Hines, an architectural historian whose thorough research, crystalline writing and unending passion for the urban landscape of Los Angeles did much to cement the region’s reputation as a global center for modernist design in the 20th century, died on July 26 in Santa Monica, Calif. He was 89. |
"Throrough, crystalline, unending, global, modernist . . .

A Cayley superline of the Klein quadric in PG(5,2)
is actually a plane of the quadric. Any such plane can be
pictured as a set of seven partitions of an 8-set into four 2-sets,
with the partitions satisfying certain geometric conditions.
A prototypical example of such a set: the four-colored bricks
numbered 1 through 7 at left in the picture below.
Some will prefer a different architectural approach . . .
