QuasiTiler 3.0
An interactive application for experimenting with Penrose tilings and more.
QuasiTiler generates beautiful tiling patterns by projecting points with
integer coordinates from higher-dimensional spaces onto the plane.
An example of these tilings are the famous Penrose tilings.
You can use the program just to produce pretty pictures, or as a experimental
tool for higher-dimensional spaces. The program includes an explanation
of the mathematics in case you want to find more about it.
ATTENTION HP PA-RISK NeXTSTEP USERS: QuasiTiler.app is triple fat!
Available by anonymous ftp at
ftp.geom.umn.edu:/pub/software/QuasiTiler-3.0.tar.Z
Fat binary runs on NeXTSTEP 3.x Motorola, Intel and HP PA-RISC.
I am looking forward to your comments. Enjoy,
