This New York Times article reports the discovery of aperiodic tiling in medieval Islamic art. These designs were not understood by Western mathematicians until the 1970s. The article includes pictures of the tilings and a link to the original research paper.
Specifying the source
Author: Bahram Roughani I believe that the connection made in the article is most likely confined in location to Iranian architecture and in particular the region best identified by the city of Isfahan in Iran. The mosaic work done in Isfahan is most outstanding in Iran with their special characteristic that sets them apart from any similar work. Other mosaic work seen in Islamic countries outside Iran do not resemble much similarities to what has been referred to in the article. Most of the other work show more right angle shapes unlike the work in Isfahan and some other parts of Iran. This article reflects an outstanding work that shows human need and desire in unifying art and science is nothing new.
