Giorgini Sphere





The "Giorgini Sphere" was Vittorio's work extending the ideas of the Mobius Strip from a circle onto a sphere. Monier Barakat and myself worked with Vittorio and Haresh Lalvani on further studies of double-curved surfaces, especially relating to the Giorgini Sphere. We made a wax model of it, but I have no idea where it is (still looking for photographs of it). Of all the sketches of our work that I kept, I found these four pages by Vittorio. Visual notes of his conversation with us on the subject.
