In a play of motion dynamics, dots trace the trajectories of each face of the Platonic solids as they move from closed to open - contracted to expanded state - in jitterbug motion, as illuminated by Buckminster Fuller, Duncan Stuart, and Joseph Clinton in the 1960's.

There are some interesting symmetries that emerge from this line of visual thinking, and also from creating animations that are inherent in the motion of the kinetic structure itself, as seen in the ghost tetrahedron. The use of transparency allows me to illuminate sacred and fundamental geometries.
