This Lotus-like flower pattern was found inside the E8 Polytope. I have colored it here with the seven colors of the rainbow, beginning with red at the center and ending with violet on the edges.
The same seven colors of the rainbow are used to color the seven chakras.

I was gazing at my RL painting of the E8 Polytope and I perceived an octagon and a unicursal octagram embedded in the center:
That got me thinking. Could that shape be used to tile space?
That thought inspired me to try to build a tiled space using prims and this is the result:
Islamic-style Trellis-like Tile made from prims.
This is about 1,000 prims and can conceivably be used for wall dividers or latticeworks in Second Life and other Virtual Worlds.
Scope Cleaver and company check out the new tiling.
What else will I find in the E8?
