Our Daily Challenge 9-14 Dec : Rock, Paper, Scissors.

 

I had to look it up on Wiki, as it is something I have never understood, in spite of it being explained to me by several folk.

 

Why not just toss a coin?

Waldorf: “Fozzie, you’re not going to give Statler a haircut, are you?”

Fozzie: “I won’t give him a hair cut, I’ll give him all his hairs cut!”

Statler: “Do you think you’re qualified to be a barber? What training do you have?”

Fozzie: “I was in the paper business, but I just couldn’t cut it.”

Waldorf: “Okay, Fozzie. I’m ready. Are you going to color my hair?”

Fozzie: “James Bond asked me the same question. I told him he would have to dye another day.”

Statler: “Didn’t you use to work at the airport?”

Fozzie: “Yes, I did, but I wanted to be in the hair control tower.”

Statler: “You don’t expect to cut my hair with that banana, do you?”

Fozzie: “No, I have a pair of Ceasars in the corner.”

Statler: “I bet they both lose if someone plays the rock.”

Waldorf: “I’m getting out of here. I can’t stand the perms and conditions.”

Fozzie: “Wait! Let me give you a comb. It will be a real treasure.”

Waldorf: “Thanks! I won’t be able to part with it.”

Rock-paper-scissors is a hand game played by at least two people. The game is also known as roshambo, or by other orderings of the three items (with "stone" sometimes substituting for "rock")

 

Watching the 3 items here, the rock, the wood, and the grass, all three in this natural setting, I couldn't help but thinking about the rock-paper-scissor game - though the items are not the same. :) PS: Of those 3 in my picture, grass wins.

The Scissors Dancers of Peru at the Raritan Native American Heritage Celebrations & PowWow 2024 Held in Middlesex County Fairgrounds, East Brunswick, NJ.

 

The Scissors Dance, Peru's Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity :

Folklore is undoubtedly one of the greatest sources of pride for countries. The inhabitants of a country identify with local artistic expressions, including traditional dances. In Peru, there is a wide variety of traditional dances that are known internationally, including the “scissors dance”, recognized by UNESCO as part of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity on November 16, 2010.

The scissors dance is an Andean ritual that is practiced in different cities in Peru, mainly in the Departments of Huancavelica and Ayacucho. It stands out for its originality, ancient roots, and symbolic value. The man who dances plays the role of the “mediator” between Mother Earth and the Andes and the settlers, managing the connection between them.

The origins of the dance date back to the 16th century when it was called “Taki Onkoy”, a Quechua expression and movement of the time that means “the rebellion of the Huacas”. It originated in the ancient region of Chanka (which today corresponds to the departments of Ayacucho, Huancavelica, and Apurimac), where, after the Spanish conquest in Peru, the priests of Taki Onkoy announced throughout the country that the centers of worship or huacas that had been destroyed by the Spanish were still in existence, in addition to proclaiming the end of the oppression by the conquistadores. These priests were driven by the force of the APUS and the PACHAMAMA to dance and communicate the message that everything that surrounds us on Earth and in space has life.

This representative dance from the mountainous regions of Peru is very colorful and powerful. It includes impressive acrobatics by the dancers, who are called “Danzaq”, whose creativity and dexterity in the dance steps amazes spectators. During the scissors dance, the man dances while carrying scissors called “female” and “male”, shaking, clinking, and moving them in the different choreography sequences.

This is my tessellation of Shuzo Fujimoto’s CFW 87 Scissors. Each molecule can be rotated independently

of others. As far I’m aware, Fujimoto himself never tessellated this pattern. Many other of his stars are likewise based on tessellation molecules which I was not able to find in tessellated form in any of his publications. Perhaps he didn’t realize they could be tessellated, or perhaps he knew but just didn’t publish it.

 

Such a situation poses an interesting challenge when I try to organize models presented on my web page by linking designs to their “base models”. From a morphological point of view, I consider a tessellation of a molecule to be the “primary” variant, with the star being a special case consisting of just a single molecule. However, from a historic point of view, in this case the stars came first and the tessellation later, with the original author probably not being aware of its existence. So, if I were to follow the historic point of view rather than the morphological, the relation would be reversed.
