Abstract

This paper describes our next step in the development of math objects with hidden graphics. It is a follow up on our minimal art object with the three faces of Gödel, Escher and Bach (GEB-object), again using a low resolution optical minimal art technique. Now we make an object with four faces: the famous faces of the fabulous four Beatles: John, Paul, George and Ringo. We selected a suitable unit cell to build the object. We describe the shape of the unit cells and the shape of the objects composed with these unit cells. It was necessary to developed a new method to display optical minimal art within hexagons. Finally we explain several ways to show the objects.
