- Behold the Bilinski Rhombic Dodecahedron I found in Croatia.
Stanko Bilinski does not have much of a wikipedia page.

Who needs sleep when you can learn about Croatian Rhombic Dodecahedrons?
yeah that's where I am too
Dodecahedra :)
Obscure Croatian variants of interesting shapes > sleep
Dodecahedrii
ikr? 3am watching Matt doing his things.
Answering the age old question of "What does a mathematician do on holiday?"
I find the lack of footage showing the return of the scissors and tape disturbing.
Great video!
+MadManoloz It's coming.
Still waiting
@@justitroyal7032 on the 2nd channel ;)
thief!
I can just imagine someone else in the hotel hearing you yell "CURSE YOU GOLDEN RATIO" and just being completely confused
And then looking up and seeing Matt after almost winning a game of Candy Crush and yelling out "CURSE YOU PARKER SQUARE" :P
5:38 you have a fan of rhombic dodecahedrons in the background there.
So building almost platonic shapes counts as a Parker Solid?
a 3d version of a parker square?
That was a real Parker square of a comment, mate.
That would be a parker cube, which we should figure out what would be.
+Abdul Muhaimin a Parker cube?
+Peter LeRoy “Apl 527097” Barnes A cube with five faces
Matt Parker: Nutcase or Genius? This video is evidence for both
It's just a fine line between the two...
neither
Wouldnt say neither but hes definately smart.
+Ukid111 that didnt make sense
The main thing I learned from this video is that Mat Parker should not be left alone in a hotel room for to long without adult supervision, he'll go mad with boredom and start making strange shapes and rambles on and on on the balcony. Interesting video though.
The Bilinski dodecahedron, rhombic icosahedron, rhombic triacontahedron, and rhombohedron are the four unit shapes in a quasicrystal. All the faces are golden rhombi, and it has 5-fold icosahedral symmetry. Subscribed.
I hope you left those in your room and confused the hell out of the staff there
And skip out on really cool souvenirs? You don't know how to live.
Lols > souvenirs
I would have given it to the nice lady who lended the cisors and tape.
They say that mathematicians are people who turn coffee into theorems. Now we learn they may also turn instant coffee (and sugar and brochures) into geometric shapes ...
the guy at 5:38 is like "What is this guy doing?"
That guy has a skirt and boobs
+Lock Ray best fucking response ever! 😂
Girls can be guys too!
Couldn't see that it's a lady at first. Went back and saw it. Couldn't stop laughing :)
Wow! I thought it was a guy, too. I think maybe it's a hotel employee, looking for the scissors and tape.
+1 for shading Nescafé as "a Coffee like substance" :-)
Magazines, Sugar Packets, and Excel... you should totally bill yourself as the "MacGyver of Maths"
"MathGyver"

I hope you showed your work to the hotel lady when you were finished.
When he returned the scissors and what's left of the tape :P
UnqualifiedAdvice
Exactly!
This is just ridiculously silly. I love it.
Matt Parker - milking maths out if everything (including, but not limited to, sugar and roomservice menus)
Oh, and root 2 is a vastly superior ratio xP
+PassionPopsicle go A4
AX where X>=0 really, that's kind of the point
But not milk, funnily enough.
+IamGrimalkin Yet. Not milk... yet.
5:37 "There's the guy who stole our stuff!"
Also, Croatia! I live right next to it (Slovenia)! It's probably been years since I last came across a serious mention of one or the other on the Internet. And, even now, it's not *my* country. It's just really close. What a Parker Square moment.
i think i would faint if i saw prof.dr.parker asking me for scissors
That guy at 5:40 though :D
PS im super surprised that im so early that on my screen, there is only one comment (Aaron Howell)
I hope you mean the guy in the far back and not the lady closer to the foreground.
Not fully platonic... so, geometry with benefits?
I love the lady at 5:30 who's like "Wtf is that crazy Australian dude doing?"
One thing to mention is that if you continue the process of "removing a belt of rhombuses" with the Bilinski dodecahedron, you can actually create a rhombic hexahedron (looking like a partially squashed cube).
There are actually an infinite number of possible rhombic hexahedrons (where the diagonals have a ratio between 1:1 [cube] and 1:√3 [basically a degenerate hexagon]), but the golden rhombic hexahedron is unique in that it is the only rhombic hexahedron that can "add" a belt of identical rhombi to create a rhombic dodecahedron.
Once again, you never disappoint me with another upload. Funny humor, great explanations and a well crafted video. Glad I subscribed!
+Kacper Bazan I'm glad you subscribed as well!
...but did you return the scissors and tape? :D Also, was there any tape left?
That's what I want to know
Asking the important questions!
Matt...the scissors thief? I hope not!
he certainly didn't return a lot of tape....
Another important question: did the flowers of the hotel's garden survive?
Thanks Matt. I have used geometry in my craft works for quite some time, including the rhombic model. Just realised there was a big story behind it. Quite interesting indeed.
+EzyCraft Glad you enjoyed it! I'd love to see more rhombic dodecahedron art.
Can we standardize the sugar packet as a unit of measurement? It really is the perfect size, and everyone knows how big they are.
It's called the inch :) :P
No, like, I want a platinum sugar packet kept in a glass container in a climate controlled vault with a code split between 3 people who live in separate countries.
you could start a kickstarter for that
a gofundme would be better
Those magazines (and that roomservice menu) died for a worthy and highly entertaining cause! :)
Awesomeness, I always love new videos of yours, they're always so exciting
+Dan Dart Thanks! They're always fun to make.
haha loved it! the hidden jokes in these videos are so much funnier than actual comedy videos! Thank you!
5:36 "What the fuck is he flapping his gums about now..."
This is awesome. You're amazing, Matt!
this is why I love this channel
I like that person that comes into the image and is seemingly consumed by the Dodecahedron. Truly a mystery that will never be solved.
The golden ratio is officially a Parker square.
You deserve a million subscribers. This video was AWESOME!!!
My countryman and a college mathematician mr. Bilinski, although I must admit I have never heard of him. Fascinating stuff, Matt. This reminds me how I once discussed one-point compactification with a matematician during a garden party and BBQ. All we neded was a ball or an orange to point at it. :-) -- -- -- --
Keep up the good work and come again soon. Greetings from Croatia.
These practical videos are my favorites!
5:38 "Hey, where's our scis---oh shit, he's doing math! Hide!"
Luckily, he was doing maths, not math.
EternalBooda lolol
As you can no doubt deduce from what you know about the Rhombic Icosahedron, the shape made by two opposite edges and an imaginary pair of parallel lines through the Icosahedron connecting the two opposite edges is a golden rectangle.
I love polyhedrons and phi, and I literally cheered out loud when you declared that the Bilinski Rhombic Dodecahedron was made up of Golden Rhombi.
I love this stuff.
Awesome video Matt! Hope you had fun in Croatia!
+Tom van de Craats I had a great time!
hey that's my grandfather - thanks for the 60K views!
LUCKY!!!! Hope you're having a good time in croatia
This is shaping up to be a be a great episode!
Yeeeey, Croatia :) I hope you enjoyed your stay :)
Awesome !!! Now I know what to do when I visit Croatia
I jumped from my seat when I realized the unexpected relation to the Rhombic Triacontahedron. Really exciting video, Matt!
Very entertaining video. Keep up the good work!
Matt! My copy of your book finally arrived. Thanks for the hypercube drawing, I think it's pretty darn awesome :D One chapter in and loving it.
+Epithemeus My pleasure! I hope you enjoy the rest of the book as well.
I love the part when the person walks onto their balcony, looks over at Matt talking about rhombic dodecahedrons to a camera, and then immediately turns around and goes back inside.
I love the intro and outro music, it's so good :D
matt youre so creative!
oh..em...gee... the point where you started using excel to divide the packet just cracked me up, this was a hillarious piece of umprvised geometry, very impressed
@standupmaths -I've been a numberphile viewer for years and have always loved your videos. Loved this one as well and keep it up; I'll keep watching. Your charismatic spin on mathematics keeps me curious (in general) and engaged in my personal betterment.
+John Fitzgerald Glad you enjoy the videos! I plan to keep on making them.
omgg mat im your huge fan from croatia, cant believe you were in croatiaa, hope you had an awesome time. Judging by the hotel, you were in Dubrovnik, im from Zadar its a little farther up. Oh and btw i love physics too, i was actually 4th on the states (like the whole croatia) physics competition. love your videos byee
That made me so happy to see the golden ratio turn up. That's actually what I thought you were going to say about the ratio of the diagonals of the first rhombus.
Thanks, Matt. Good stuff as always.
+Greg Johnston Glad you enjoyed it!
Excellent piece of informative entertainment! Setting, presentation, factoids, and mathematics (geometry) are top notch. Keep up the good work!
+S .Tsing Tap Thanks! I had fun making it.
lol, here I was googling a good visualization of the Bilinski dodecahedron while thinking about how Matt would hate it for the golden ratio, and then a video by him is the first good visualization I find. I really should just subscribe to this channel already.
Love a bit of Maths and Crafts!
Once again, I learned something about Math!!?? Matt you are amazing. I have no idea how to use this information, but I find it fascinating, and feel smarter for the experience. Thank you
+Kathryn Blodgett You never know when some dodecahedral knowledge will come in handy!
Wow, I was so impressed(but not surprised) when phi appeared in bilinki's dodecahedron!
This was better than expected!
+Tiago Resende My thoughts exactly!
Best description of instant coffee i've ever heard!
as someone who works at front desk, id be hyped as hell to lend my scissors and tape to someone constructing a rhombic dodecahedron
Another great video, thanks for sharing. As a designer I must say this new "Rhombic" is quite interesting :)
I live for Matt Parker, "A new Rhombic Dodecahedron FROM CROATIA!" The exclamation point adds great extremities of your excitement
Only curious: after your wife saw this video, are you allowed to go with her to conferences again?
Why not? He spent the whole day on maths and kept himself out of trouble.
if only kids also did the same at hotels.....
I did when I was a kid.
I like "I'm staying at the hotel" as validation of the craft-supplies request!
+Crap Box Photography I thought I had to say something with confidence!
That was great man! DIY Maths is a winner!
+Libretto If in doubt: DIY maths!
I am sitting here with a bag of Munchies, eating them in consistent harmony with the video. Every time Matt's voice lowers I eat one and will almost certainly be ill.
Yep, 10:19 and I am done but feeling ashamed and a little ill.
That hotel is never gonna let you borrow scissors and tape again.
📐😀✂
I hope you enjoy your stay in our beautiful little country :)
+BSBlackSilverBoltBSB I did! It was indeed beautiful.
why do I enjoy this so much, I'm a journalism major and can't even do basic math properly.....
matt gyver, saves the world by constructing the infamous rhombic dodecahedron with sugar pacs, excell and a pair of scissors... :D
Brilliant !
When you get some more materials you can make the Subscribahedron.
this was great!
he looked so satisfied 10:56 'the croatian creation'
Very cool! There is a great set of geometry blocks called 'Rhombo', created by Michael Longuet-Higgins (co-discoverer of some of the uniform polyhedra), the Bilinski dodec arises pretty naturally out of them, especially when you are trying to construct a triacontahedron.
+AdamLore I need to get me some of those blocks!
I love so much that i found another rhombic dodecahedron enthusiast
Awesome!
haha loved it! the hidden jokes in these videos make me laugh so mucb more than actual comedy videos! Thank you!
Brilliant.
Nescafe - a Parker square of a coffee. Hope you enjoyed your stay in my country - it has granted you a subscriber. :)
A day well spent:)
"I will definitely bring them back" - Matt
The best way to sound like he won't bring them back
Amazing
Hey i'm from Croatia and thank you for making this video :D
+Nino Malis My pleasure. Glad you enjoyed it. You have a lovely country.
I enjoyed the way your neighbour popped her head out just after the 5 minute mark, and promptly went away again...and who can blame her.
Also, I hope you sent this video to the Hotel - I'm sure they'd enjoy this.
1:14 "How hard can this be?"
I've seen enough Top Gear to lower my expectations for a successful segment, whenever this is said.
Nerdiest way to destroy a hotel room ever. I love it.
His name was Stanko Bilinski and he was from Nasice, wich is in Slavonia. I am going to school in that city and every year we have a Stanko's geometry school.
Lovely! I actually understood that (not always my experience when following Matt Maths ;-) !
thank you, comrade!
This is so beautiful! :'D
I see confusion when we talk about "rhombic dodecahedra" now... Perhaps we should rename the standard Rhombic Dodecahedron to something catchy & unique! From rho[mbus] + doz[en], I suggest calling it a Rhodoz!
deadly video loved the excel bit
as a fan from croatia, im very pleased you visited our country. as long as you stay away from our music, you'll be fine (:
+Arley I did have some locals sing at me. I survived.
Sorry, I’m here to comment about a different Video… but I have to say it: “returning of scissors and tape” ist the best CZcams content ever….
As soon as I saw sqrt(5) I had a feeling the golden ratio would be involved somehow.
+Wyatt Jackson That should have been a clear warning but I still didn't see it coming.
Love Parker's videos - and I did a double take on the link for "whydontyou subscribahedron!"
