Roger Penrose — the English mathematical physicist who shared the 2020 Nobel Prize in Physics for the discovery that black hole formation is a robust prediction of the general theory of relativity — is also famous for something more terrestrial - Penrose Tiling. Here’s a look at the other side of the Nobel laureate:Tile High: Back in the 1970s, Roger Penrose created a set of tiles that could be used to cover an infinite plane in a pattern that never repeats. His work changed our basic understanding of design, showing how infinite variations could be created within a highly ordered environment. Patterns of Penrose

I just finished another Penrose tile quilt: First - Credit where it's due... If you do a Google Image search on 'Penrose tile quilt' the top three results will be this awesome quilt: This lovely quilt was made by Serena Mylchreest nearly 20 years ago. This obviously was an inspiration for my design. The element of the Mylchreest design that I borrowed is the way the rhombi are divided in half (fat rhombi divided lengthwise, and the thin rhombi split on the narrow diagonal) so it is tiled with triangles instead of rhombi. Then the critical design element is to select colors of different values for the 'light half' and 'dark half' of the rhombi to create the nifty 3-D effect. I was pleased with the way my last Penrose tile quilt turned out when I first came up with the notion to machine piece the patches before I English paper pieced the rhombi. So I played around with some other machine piecable patterns and this was one of the results. When I designed the layout, I wanted to make a Penrose tiling that was not radially symmetrical through the center like my last quilt (and most Penrose tile quilts). I find their quasi-periodic nature one of the more mind bending elements of Penrose tilings, and I feel this is not obvious when it is radially symmetrical. I began with this simple layout: The yellow dots indicate the eventual location of the yellow stars. The black square roughly indicates the final border of the quilt. Then I deflate the rhombi 3 levels thusly: I explain inflation/deflation of Penrose tiles more thoroughly in this post. After removing the superfluous rhombi, we're left with this base layout: Then we add these machine piece rhombi: One last design decision I made was to inflate just five of the rhombi to make the one large star. Two other designs I came up with while playing with machine-pieced rhombi:

The Alton's - "When You Go (That's When You Know" / "Over And Over (45 Vinyl) It is our distinct pleasure to present Penrose, a new imprint poised to usher in a whole new era of soulful sounds. Founded by Daptone Records' own Bosco Mann after building a new recording studio in his hometown of Riverside, California, Penrose will showcase the most exciting acts emerging on the blossoming SoCal souldies scene today. For its inaugural release, the label offers up five singles by five exciting new artists: Thee Sacred Souls from San Diego; Jason Joshua from Miami; East L.A. mainstays Thee Sinseers, and The Altons; and Altadena veterans, Los Yesterdays. Though Bryan Ponce and Adriana Flores share the stage with Joey Q as part of the East LA souldies outfit Thee Sinseers, they really step into the spotlight with The Altons, a group they themselves founded along with drummer Caitlin Moss and bassist Gabriel Maldonado . On this their debut single on Penrose, Bryan sings the lead with a smoky-sweet falsetto that bends tenderly from growl to howl and back again. The group takes a turn through a classic Miracles-style mid-tempo groove on the A-side, leaving you helplessly addicted to their sweet eponymous refrain, When you go that’s when you’ll know… However, it’s the B-side that prompted producer Bosco Mann to declare Bryan Ponce the most underrated singer on the scene today. Of course that won’t last long when the soul heads get their needles in “Over and Over.” The secret is out. Dude can sing. This is my jam.
