You’ve probably seen this design before, but do you know its ANCIENT origins? #TEDTalk #History
What can we make of a design that shows up over and over in disparate cultures throughout history? Theorist Terry Moore explores “Penrose tiling” — two shapes that fit together in infinite combinations without ever repeating — and ponders what it might mean. Watch his full talk here:

My Bank Called In the Middle of My TED Talk | Mike Albo | TED
In this TED Talk gone wrong, comedian Mike Albo receives an unexpected call from his bank. The result: a hilariously uncomfortable tour of his purchase history, and a reminder that in the digital age, our data knows us a little too well. (Recorded at TEDNext 2025 on November 10, 2025) Join us in person at…

Bose Unveils New $299 Lifestyle Ultra Speaker
Bose unveiled its Lifestyle Collection of audio products, which include a new smart speaker that now use Google Cast or Apple AirPlay instead of a proprietary app. The $299 Lifestyle Ultra speaker is a single-channel speaker with a height driver that uses the company’s “direct reflecting” technology to add presence, though it’s not an Atmos…

The geometries Penrose worked on are more complicated than those of the ancients, for the record. Kepler stumbled on several as well.

If it’s existed for thousands of years why is it called penrose tiling. Another attempt by the west to discount the contributions of POC.

I’ve accidentally made some of these while doodling in middle school without knowing what they were called. They’re fun. They appeal to a desire for something complex yet organized. I’m not sure that it requires shared cultural context to enjoy those qualities.

Why illustrate the vid with stuff that isn’t penrose tilings? Like the floor tiles under the white chairs, that’s clearly a repeating, regular tiling pattern, not a penrose tiling.

The idea that somehow these acutely mathematical phenomena are somehow instinctively derived is untenable against what we already know of the history of math and geometry, the human delight and reassurance in repeating patterns etc. when Penrose shows a pattern which rarely, if ever repeats.

If that pattern is life, then why isn’t a circle life? Or a nesting of Venn diagrams? “It’s life”… okay. So is a smile, good food, brutality… yeesh.

I’m guessing you’re trying to make an ancient vs modern point, but the phrasing “even the Middle East” bugs me. As the “cradle of civilization” why wouldn’t we expect to see the patterns there? The Middle East is pretty well known for these patterns, and you even listed Egypt first.

Not to be that guy, but the 1970s might be a bit late for discovered.
