Geocache Description:


Enter the next dimensions!

(Are Roger's Rabbits from Pisa?)

 

Once upon a time, the whole story started quite simple with a small rabbit, which grew up and bred under peculiar conditions …
And before you could turn around, suddenly the whole area was completely covered (or tiled?) – but strangely enough – rather aesthetically in manifold ways.

Recently, this “phenomenon” found his way into basic research, material science, photonics, … and was even worth a price.
But into which dimensions the whole topic will finally take us, nobody dares to say. Into the 6th or 8th or even higher dimensions?

Can you get a glimpse of the “crystal ball”?

 
Seek the two types of tiles (convex tetragons), which are buried in here (left picture) and name them (Sg.).
= name1 and name2
  Can you recognize a pattern (right picture)? Whom is it named after? (Surname)
= name3

 

The pattern on the right and the story of the rabbit(s) share a common “golden rule”: ½(1+√a)
Determine a.

Find the “crystal ball” (i.e. main topic) = name4.


b = Σname1 + Σname2
c = sum of the digits of b
d = number of letters of name3
e = Σname4
f = sum of the digits of e

Solve the mystery of the rabbit(s), and you will realize how to calculate the value of letters and words:
ΣA = 0
ΣZ = 75025
ΣPISA = 3215

Coordinates: N 48°45.(c+6)·a² E 008°10.a·d·f-a·(c+d)
