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 objects with the three faces of Gödel, Escher, and Bach, and the four faces of The Beatles. Again we use a low resolution optical minimal art technique. This year we made an object with the silhouettes of six horses. We describe the shape of a suitable unit cell, the shape of the object composed with these unit cells, and the shape of the grid that shows the images. Finally we explain several ways to display the object.
