まほうの絵ふで

まる・さんかく・しかく。身の回りにはたくさんの形がありますが、この授業のテーマに取り上げたのは「さんかく」。数学者バックミンスター・フラーのフラードームを参考に、三角形の安定構造を利用しながら、綿棒で美しいオブジェを作りました。綿棒のくっつけ方も美しく作るポイントでした。

The Circle, triangle, and square. There are many forms around us, but we chose the triangle for the theme of this class. They made a beautiful object using the cotton buds while thinking about stable, triangular structures. They referred to the Fuller Dome by mathematician Richard Buckminster Fuller. The important points were to think about how the cotton buds were connected in the construction, as well as making it beautiful.
