COOK TWIST, AND MORE COOK-MOBIUS CROCHET?

 Cook Twist

Cook Twist. One side, one edge, one hole but effectively two holes

               A Cook Twist.  One side, one edge, one core-gap hole, but two effective holes!  A topoligical figure.

The Mobicorikon, (a manual for crocheting symmetrical four-dimensional objects with the Cook-Mobius Method) has moved to a new place.  You can find, and listen to, my uncensored and continuing blog now by using the link above, Cook Twist.

Learn About Quantum Physics Through Crochet

  Cook-Mobius Crochet Method LEARN ABOUT QUANTUM PHYSICS THROUGH COOK-MÖBIUS CROCHET INTRODUCTION THE MOBICORIKON is a How To manual.  It will guide you to understanding quantum physics through crocheting Mobius twists and other topological objects.  It also includes instructions on how to crochet for the total beginner. THE MÖBICORIKON  The Möbicorikon is a map and if you follow it you will gain an innate sense of the quantum world. Be prepared to be utterly flummoxed, enlightened despite your biases and to laugh out loud a lot. It is not hard and equally it is not easy. I cannot stress enough that this is a journey that can only be travelled by Doing! If you do not actually make the bodies-of-work herein, then you are not on the journey and you will learn little. The Möbicorikon uses string as its guide, and crochet is its method of choice. It will teach you beginner's crochet as well as Cook-Möbius quantum crochet.  You will craft, from scratch,  objects that are symmetrical in

TOPOLOGICAL FIGURES, COOK-MÖBIUS CROCHET AND NOBLE SHAPES

Cook-Mobius Crochet Method CHAPTER TWO Some photos of real topological figures Seamed Möbius twist on two sides of  a square, the seam is in green and NOT part of the edge Three views /stages of one Cook Twist on all four sides of a square, no seam  YOU HAVE MADE THE BODY OF WORK IN MY PREVIOUS POST, LEARN ABOUT QUANTUM PHYSICS THROUGH CROCHET, it is a paper Möbius strip grown on to row 1, complete. The paper strip is equivalent to the crochet Starting Chain, the first layer of safety pins is equivalent to Row 0 of Stitch, and the second layer of pins is equivalent to Row 1 of Stitch. TOPOLOGICAL FIGURES, COOK-MÖBIUS CROCHET AND NOBLE SHAPES  After the beginners' crochet chapters, the bodies-of-work we make will be crocheted Möbius twists/Möbius Rings, and later on Cook Twists/Cook Rings. They will be actual manipulable topological symmetrical figures. You can stretch them and pull them about, but they will remain essentially the same.*** As you grow them on Row by Row, they will g

TOPOLOGICAL FIGURES, OR NOBLE SHAPES by Lucinda Cook

 Topological Figures, Or Noble Shapes /p> In the photos above I am holding this Cook Twist Ring at the same spot! The second photo is a quarter turn to the left. Below is the same Cook Twist, with three rounds of blue added along the one continuous edge.  It is a topological figure with only one side and one edge.  It has only one core gap hole, but effectively and visually it has two core gap holes. My arm is going through the same hole as the hole hanging off the side. Impossible? True. It is an actual topological object. If you search "Topological Figures" on a search engine, all you will see is computer-generated images of imaginary topological objects.  So quantum physicists typically use one-D to draw, represent, and understand an object that is 4- or 5-D.  Hmm, is there something amiss there? How much easier would their comprehension be if they actually got their hands on real 4- or 5-D objects? Or better yet, grew one from scratch themselves? I call Topological fig
