To create the organic shape of the pieces, we designed a system based the simulation of dendritic solidification, a crystal growth process similar to the formation of snowflakes that occurs in supercooled solutions of certain metallic alloys. By varying the parameter space, it can produce a variety of cut styles. You can read about how our simulation works here.

This series features art by Jonathan McCabe which combines multiple scales of reaction diffusion with fluid flow to create a kaleidoscopic landscape of colors and patterns. Read more about Jonathan's work here.
Featured Whimsies
Each puzzle comes with around 15 special figural pieces. These include pieces from our "Microscopic Life" set with algae, diatoms,
radiolarians and other minuscule creatures. And also our "Ocean" and "Land" sets. There's everything from leafy sea dragons and scuba divers to cats and bumblebees. A key to identifying the whimsies is available here.
