+ + <_description> +Animates a mesh geodesic sphere of increasing and decreasing complexity. + +A geodesic sphere is an icosohedron whose equilateral faces are +sub-divided into non-equilateral triangles to more closely approximate +a sphere. + +The animation shows the equilateral triangles subdivided into four +coplanar equilateral triangles; and then inflated outward, causing the +sub-triangles to no longer be equilateral, but to more closely +approximate the surface of a sphere. + +http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geodesic_dome +http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buckminster_Fuller + +Written by Jamie Zawinski; 2013. + +
