Box of Infinity

Flickr user Ron Brinkmann built a cube using six square mirrors with the reflective sides facing inward. To capture the view inside the cube, he placed a camera inside with its timer set to shoot. The resulting photographs are beautiful 'infinite" reflections, one of which (third one down) reminds me of The Matrix. See more of Brinkmann's photos at his Flickr page. Via Viral Nova.

Try that input:
plot e^(-3*((0.5+x)^2+y^2/2))+e^(-x^2-y^2/2)*cos(4*x), x=-3..3, y=-5..5

I don't think it's possible to see the intersection at z=0.001 as they've done in the picture though.

The source page says "plot the following equation over the region -3<x<3, -5<y<5. It also suggested that you should only plot the z values in the range 0<z<0.001."

Is there a way to clip the 3D plot in Wolfram Alpha?

I was going to post the same thing. Wolfram Alpha seems to disagree, that's not HI.

Neat link though. I already knew the batman one (previously featured at Neatorama, IIRC), and the origami mermaid is worth trying
