Hexagon(al) Shapes.

Hello again,

I was asking if there's any reason why there's some preference to the hexagon in BoC's stuff.
Are they just fans of geometry?

There are a few possibilities, They have said they find the hexagon a fascinating shape due to geometry and nature as you say, Also it may stem from Hexagon Sun which I personally believe refers to lens flare or bokeh from the sun, a lens flare of the sun would look hexagonal if you used a 6 bladed aperture in your camera lens. There is also the possibility its a reference to the hexagonal benzine ring which is the base molecule for many compounds (Left Side Drive). Or it could be all of the above!

That is very interesting. I have to agree that the hexagon is fascinating. One of my favourites.

The way BOC is obsessed with math...you'll understand the deeper you dive!

Read this as tortoise hexagon pool.

Well my autocorrect tried to change turquoise to tortoise so it nearly did say that!

So we may not exclude that you saing "TORTOISE HEXAGON POOL." was a total possibility and happened in another Universe?

I can't think of any other possible scenario. That was the exact moment a new branch of reality was spawned. Somewhere out there is a track called Tortoise Hexagon Pool :D

Actually people say they can hear pool being played in the background of Turquoise Hexagon Sun. I used to hear it, The clacking of pool balls on a pool table, But I don't hear it anymore. SO WEIRD.

And there is 10000's of alt. universe BoC fans listening to Tortoise Hexagon Pool.

I figured there must already be a hexagons topic and I found one. For all of you hexagon spotters out there. Keep it real-life or handmade, please? Image

Posting here mostly for more triangles in the avatars.

Triangles are great, form the basis of geometry and hexagons are a group of triangles looking inward.
I also concur with the general sun flare idea.
