Puns are a good way to introduce complicated concepts in a
non-intimidating manner. This Bridges am sharing some visual math puns
created using stuffed (polyester-filled) animals. The resulting
sculptural poly-fill-hedra are simultaneously attractive art pieces
and entertaining math puns. Photos of additional poly-fill-hedra may
be seen in my short paper.
The Dodocahedron is a mathematical art pun. It is made from 12
stuffed dodos arranged into a roughly rhombic dodecahedral shape.
