" with the pattern never repeating." \/ I guess my eyes are lying cuz I see repeating patterns... einstein-tile-David-Smith-Joseph-Samuel-Myers-Craig-S-Kaplan-Chaim-Goodman-Strauss-640x480 Maybe I'm missing their point.

That’s likely an extremely rigid structural design because it wouldn’t slip along fault planes. A 3D version would be a mind blower.

Very interesting. Penrose tiling is also aperiodic but requires at least two different tile shapes. I wonder when these new tiles will be commercially available.

Sort of like Penrose tiling?

I don’t understand the problem well enough to understand why this is a problem.
Am I alone on this?

Did he do Penrose tiles one better?

It would be interesting to see how they proved it doesn’t repeat. Maybe after laying down a spread a billion wide or so it does.

I probably wouldn’t follow the proof anyway.
