What happens when you're a mathematician and student of mystical geometry and you play around a lot with soap films, study vortices, and think about Archimedian tiling? You discover a 7-sided form that occurs in multiple places in nature, including the human heart's chambers, and name it after yourself: the Chestahedron, by Frank Chester, a student of Rudolf Steiner. Then you make amazing art with it, invent a new kind of bell suspended from the apex point of your form, and generally go hog-wild.Wow. The Art and Architecture of Frank Chester. Don't miss the PDF booklet that includes a paper pattern to cut and fold your own chestahedron. +James Salsman this one's for you especially. I remember walking straw dodecahedrons in the park with you and your mentor Ed, talking about Archimedean solids and Golay encoding.#wp
