Hi!
This is a neat video that shows the power of blender (geometry nodes) to visualize math.
To illustrate how aperiodic Penrose tilings can be viewed as a projection from a 5 dimensional to a 2 dimensional space.

Thanks for that. Also, creating weighted bones for animation... Very fun. Actually, I need to get back into my python code I created for blender. Fwiw it generated the following fractal:

Oh, that's nice. Can you move a camera into the fractal structure? Here is an inside shit of my sketchfab experiment:

 You can look from inside one of the spheres, but that wouldn't yield an interesting view. By zooming in you can see the insides of the spheres where they intersect the bounding box.
I hope that more features will become available when desmos 3d is no longer in the beta stage of development.
