Archimedean Excogitation is a dynamic rolling ball sculpture that explores the theme of “a new way of seeing.” This machine includes nearly thirty moving or sound-producing devices with two different ball sizes such as billiard balls in the bottom section and small bowling balls at the top.
There are 13 Archimedean solids. Each is a special type of polyhedron, a geometric solid whose faces are each flat polygons. An Archimedean solid has faces of at least two types of regular polygons (polygons with sides of equal length). For instance, a cuboctahedron has 14 faces—eight triangles and six squares. An icosidodecahedron has 32 faces—20 triangles and 12 pentagons. In an Archimedean solid, the faces are arranged so that the corners are all alike.

Okay, I can finally breathe again: only one workman will be in the house today to repair the racks in my new dishwasher (my luck: I buy a new one, and it’s broken) and he’ll only be here briefly. Then I have a break from home invasion for a week, during which time my kitchen's…
