Net (polytope)
Tetrahedron-centered perspective projection into 3D space, with nearest tetrahedron to the 4D viewpoint rendered in red, and the 4 surrounding octahedra in green. Cells lying on the far side of the polytope have been culled for clarity (although they can be discerned from the edge outlines). The rotation is only of the 3D projection image, in order to show its structure, not a rotation in 4D space.

Famous quotes containing the word images:

    Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven images of the Lord, thy God, nor of men who are his creatures.
    Max Frisch (1911–1991)

    Lawrence Kutner (20th century)

    We are all of us imaginative in some form or other, for images are the brood of desire ...
    George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)
