Renowned mathematicians testing AI's reasoning capabilities: “I was not prepared to be contending with an LLM like this,” he says, “I’ve never seen that kind of reasoning before in models. That’s what a scientist does. That’s frightening.” www.scientificamerican.com/article/insi...

Poinsot's Paper Spaceship #2 - work in progres An ellipsoid and a sphere are intersecting each other, looking like a ... a fleet of zeppelins or a swarm of whales! #MathArt #SciArt Axonometric construction on watercolor paper, adding a bit of watercolor pencils (before applying the water)

It's June! 🐡

Please rewind! ^^ (Made in blender!) #blender #blender3d #vhs #retro

Pattern block play with heptagons! #21CenturyPB #iTeachMath

First energy levels of a 2D quantum harmonic oscillator. Each pattern shows where you're most likely to find the particle. Made with #Python #NumPy #Matplotlib on the train coming back from @pyconit.bsky.social #PyConIT2025

In case you've never thought, 'What if I was to take some math, do some extra math to make it three-dimensional, then do some watercolours to it?' -- here you go.

This is my series Circles to Circles in its entirety - six ties stereographic projection "depicted via orthographic projection" My latest blog post has the work-in-progress photos: elkement.art/2025/06/04/c... #SciArt Analog #MathArt

The store is live to everyone!🥳 If you fancy a Moon painting that contains genuine Moon dust.👇🥳 Vhspaceart.myshopify.com 🧪📷🔭🐡

Two old sketches for this weeks topic "bioflurescent". I'm working on a new one, but I am still trying to figure out how to do the pattern of a ray. #SundayFishSketch

Update to the #MathArt starter pack - it comes now with several more, great, stunning #Math artists. Be sure to follow all of them, please spread the word, and let me know if you have further suggestions! go.bsky.app/CiKwTsg

Poinsot's Paper Spaceship #1 - work in progres Adding the "3D" orthographic projection. An ellipsoid and a sphere are intersecting each other, looking like an UFO! #MathArt #SciArt Louis Poinsot was a mathematician who gave us geometrical mthods to visualize the physics of the gyroscope.

This is my shiny drawing of a capybara! A Holobara! #art #animal #capybara #sciart #printart #handmade

Scientifically Accurate Star made it safely to its new home 🥹

Less than a week to my first vendor experience as an art stationery purveyor. I am thrilled and terrified, and trying hard to manage my expectations. I’m trying to frame it just as an opportunity to meet people. That’s enough, honestly! In the end, it’ll be awesome fun! www.fridaynight.market

Reposting this promotional card to celebrate having a prospective supplier again. I plan to continue offering all these designs, but will restock only sterling silver to keep prices low. While existing stock lasts I intend not to raise prices. www.diffgeom.com/product-cate... #MathArt #Jewelry

On my mission to make Descriptive Geometry cool again! New series, early stage: Ellipsoid intersecting a sphere. I have not even added the intersection line or the 3D axonometric view - and things are already getting crowded :-) #SciArt #MathArt Title of the series: Poinsot's Paper Spaceship.

Intersection of ellipsoid and sphere(s) - watercolor pencils drawing, still buckled from the water! #SciArt #MathArt

"Gibbs propels the visual argument further by pointing out that analytical formulae are strictly unnecessary for comprehending relationships between thermodynamic state variables, since they can just as easily be understood by applying graphical methods." carnotcycle.wordpress.com/2014/06/01/t...

Some great moments in graphic design via math books

Today I’m sharing one of the first packs of greeting cards I made: goimagine.com/song-birds-g... #humanmade Painted, printed, packaged, and posted by me in my own studio. I use Procreate and no artificial “assistance”. #art #BSNM #Birds #Birdart #GreetingCard #goimagine #IndieArtist #ShopSmall

Absolutely breaktaking work!! Insane attention to detail and careful transformation of the antique original!

Canvas print "unboxing" 🤩 The box is 35x25x4 cm3 - 14x10x1.6 inches3 - about 1.5 times larger than the original drawing. Art by elkement - number 3 of 6 in the series "Circles to Circles". Prints by Art Heroes, The Netherlands.

🎨🪐☀️Over the years, I painted the whole solar system in watercolor — from the blazing Sun to icy Neptune. A tribute to our cosmic home. ✨Prints: pierre-vuaillet.pixels.com/collections/... ✨Originals: www.pierrevuaillet.art/watercolor/p... #ArtInSpace #Watercolor #SolarSystem #SpaceArt #Space

aww made a tiny Moon

Stanleycaris was a small cambrien radiodont, notable for having three eyes, and a fully fossilized brain (some images on the fish food label are cc from wikipedia, tank decorations are old projects, and the background is made from my living room) #paleoart #blender #blender3d #cambrien

Ooh look everyone - get your red hot #MathArt! Thanks @msmathcomp.bsky.social #MathSky
