How would you explain the concept of mengele sponge to a dumb person?

Nice trick to trick us into explaining it to you. Kill yourself faggot.

>>8205764
Fucking strange words in English and German
>>8205777
Unironically how did you know it?

>Begin with a cube

>Divide every face of the cube into 9 squares, like a Rubik's Cube. This will sub-divide the cube into 27 smaller cubes.

>Remove the smaller cube in the middle of each face, and remove the smaller cube in the very center of the larger cube, leaving 20 smaller cubes.

>This is a level-1 Menger sponge (resembling a Void Cube).

>Repeat steps 2 and 3 for each of the remaining smaller cubes, and continue to iterate ad infinitum.

At the end of the day its a thought experiment on the effects of 3d fractals on common notions such as volume and surface area.

Geometry is so cool.

>>8205793
So it's a cube with an infinite amount of cube-shaped holes, what is it's purpose?

>>8205806
nerds use it to circlejerk about their CPU computation speeds

>>8205815
Folding at home, brah.

I thought it was some space-physics related concept.

Turtles all the way down.

It is a shape that is neither 2-dimensional nor 3-dimensional. It is in between, of dimension about 2.7268. Its exact dimension is [math]\log_3(20)[/math].

>>8205902
Fractal dimensionality is operational. Topologically, it is 3 dimensional.

what would it feel like to fuck a menger sponge

Once my gf tricked me and put a mengelele sponge in her pussy, when i tried to fuck her my dick gained infinite surface.

this should be the banner for /sci/

I don't know but I want to eat it

I forgot to block that chill

Hydroponic nutrient matrix, one cube per plant per season for everbearing varieties. Print them with a ceramic nozzle and 3d printer.

It's a visualization of the cantor set.

For one, it's REALLY cool. I mean, it's one of many hypothetical objects with infinite surface area, but finite volume! Isn't that amazing?

>explain anything to a dumb person
pointless waste of time and effort

>>8206048
Kek

It's a 3d fractal that looks like a cube

it iterates towards zero volume and infinite surface area like all 3D fractals

>>8205760
take a square.
divide the square into 9 equal parts
remove the middle one
repeat for each new square formed by the dividing action

now do the same but in three dimensions

>>8205809
Oy vey.

>>8205760
>>8207384
are three dimensional fractals in any meaningful way distinct from two dimensional ones?

>>8205806
What do you mean? What is the purpose of existence? What is the purpose the number 1? It's just a thing that exists as an abstract concept.

>>8207451
Are three dimensional objects in any way distinct from two dimensional ones?

>>8207451
Other than working in R^2 rather than R^3 I imagine not. In mathematics, 3 dimensions and 2 dimensions are just special cases of the actual abstract mathematics.

>>8207462
yeah, but in any way that isn't obvious?
