I just discovered the sculptures of Charles O. Perry 
(http://www.charlesperry.com/index.html) -- I suppose he's probably well 
known to many POVers; I'm always a bit slow.  I've been looking around 
to try to get some inspiration for the POV contest, but I keep going off 
on tangents.

Anyway, here are two "string art" looking things, one made from rotating 
the faces of an octahedron by 60 degrees, while translating them out a 
ways to get regular octagons as the new faces, and the other made from 
rotating the faces of a cube by 45 degrees, while translating them out 
to get regular heagons.  I did the math rather late at night, so the 
octagons and hexagons may be slightly irregular.
