Hi, I’m David Plaxco. On this account, I share aesthetic solution states of n-layer Rubik's cubes. Otherwise, I teach math at UGA, research undergraduate mathematics education, and try to make my experiences here on earth more meaningful.

That’s the stuff.
Ah! I'm behind the conversation!
Karen beat me to the DGS-ification. :)
If you care about finite groups, you must at some point make your own really nice picture of the subgroup lattice of the alternating group on five letters. 🧮
Super proud of a couple of 18-year olds who graduated from Clarke Central HS (that’s what the “C” is for) yesterday. Also super proud of Amy (their mom; my partner) for raising two wonderful people.
I've been exploring this family of patterns.
These are torus knots/links with 3n crossings (for n = 0,..., 5) on odd-sized Rubik's cubes from 3 layers through 13 layers.
I tried to make the colors exactly the same, but the even links forced me to use edges from the r/w/b half of the cube.
Very nice problem!
I appreciated it so much that I constructed the figure in Desmos
