Hypercube 09:12 pm
Taking a break from drowning in film theory (postmodern? postfeminist? poststructuralist? posthumanist?) I found this on Astronomy Picture of the Day. The description is quite charming: "a dynamic three-dimensional drawing (two spatial plus one time) of a four-dimensional depiction of a five-dimensional cube," although I think that Greg Egan's applets are more aesthetically pleasing. Here's a few favorites. Most of them do something when you click them.

Hypercube is entrancing.
Wythoff is really neat.
Slice is another one I could stare at for a while.
Flowers is pretty.
Laplace is fun if your sound works.

EDIT: From Spaceweather, a lovely photo of the partially-eclipsed sun rising over India.
