Added by jacquesraffine, 21 Mar 2023 To make a Mobius Strip, make a loop of paper but twist it once before sticking the ends together. It is a remarkable object, simple to make yet unusual in its properties. Music written along the Strip appears twice before you return to the start point - firstly the normal way up, and then upside down. In this piece of music, three tunes (and their upside-down selves) combine together harmoniously on the same Strip. Examples of other practical uses of the Mobius Strip are the never-ending typewriter ribbon found in old machines, long-life conveyor belts which effectively use both "top and bottom" of the belt, and continuous-loop recording tapes. |
