I am quite pleased with how our presentation on the mathematics of beehives and nets turned out. I was initially concerned about the amount of math present in the presentation, but as I dug around to enrich that aspect of the presentation, I was pleasantly surprised by the amount of depth involved in nets! I think it would be very interesting to further explore the patterns between geometric shapes and isometric nets.

Something I learned from the project that I will hold onto is the amazing way in which beehives are constructed, or rather the uncertainty in the scientific community of just how it is done. Trying to work out what might happen, even just as idle speculation, engaged a few different parts of my brain, from the chemical to the psychological.

If I were to do anything differently in this assignment, it would be to dive deeper into the math of net construction, as I noted above. I though that the presentation was smooth, but really only very introductory. Part of the issue is that we bounced around a bit between context, math, and design elements. Obviously, all presentations are a mix of these things, but I think a more intentional flow between them could have helped us make better use of our limited presenting time.
