Architect, sculptor, inventor. Problems are more exciting than solutions, questions more inspiring than answers.
My father engineered gliders, (you still see them in the sky over Hungary today) and my mother was a poet. So perhaps I represent the meeting place of science and art...
When I first developed the cube, I was exploring a structural question to give my students – how to make an object that could move on three axis? I put colored paper on each side, so I could follow the motion of the little squares. I jumbled the cube and enjoyed the movement of the colors. Then I wanted to put the squares back in their place, and I discovered the real challenge: how to return home?
