Grand Antiprism!

Woohoo! I made an animation of this fantastical 4D beastie! There are two interpenetrating coils each of 10 pentagonal antiprisms. Very nifty! Anyway, if ya wanna see what the animation looks like it's on my hyper-site!

Great pictures, I wished I had a program that runs the animations, any suggestion (running Windows-XP, .Net framework present)

Bclaw, very nice set of hyper-graphics. I too cannot run animations. i also have a question about your 600-cell hexacosichoron. Is it the same as the hyper-icosahedron found at this site?
http://mathworld.wolfram.com/600-Cell.html

I conceptually contrued a set of overlapping icosahdra and a friend may a graphic of it for me I call teh8-UOI-GGF. Another friend says 8-UOI-GGF is at the core of the hyper-icocsahedron.

Here i link to my 8-UOI-GGF set of 8-overlapping icosahedra sharing a common tetrahedral core.[/url]http://home.usit.net/~rybo6/rybo/[/url]
{thanks for any time or knolwede you may have}

Icosahedral gravity is the most spherical regular polyhedron ergo it the highest quasi-physical dimensioning(powering) serving as the intermediate buffer-zone between all that is physical all that is metaphysical.

The animation is dizzying (and wonderful!). Excellent piece of work.
