You can insert an icosahedron inside an octahedron.
If the edge length of the octahedron ist 1 + Phi (1.618), the egde length of the icosahedron is SQRT(2).
A friend showed me this picture by Casey house:

And I had to draw it in isometric projection.
Very neat.
One could also make that even further and put an octahedron into the icosahedron and so on...

Sometimes I remember that most of the games I love are extremely obscure and at most have five other people in the fandom.
Anyways, do anyone else knows about 140, THOTH, HoB, OCTAHEDRON: Transfixed Edition, THUMPER, VVVVVV, Billie Bust Up, NERVE (Gunfish Games), TY the Tasmanian Tiger, Owlboy and/or JUMPGRID?

One neat thing about being a shapechanger is that if someday I happen to think "Hm, I wonder what it is like to be an octahedron?", I can just turn myself into an octahedron and find out.
(It turns out that being an octahedron isn't really all that interesting. But I wouldn't have known that if I hadn't tried.)

4 tiny tetrahedra friends (red, blue, yellow, green) and 1 octahedron guy (violet) make up the big tetrahedron squad (packed densely into a pretty nice tetrahedron glass cage):
Tumblr media Tumblr media
(The octahedron guy is at the center of the friend group. Does it make them the mom friend?)
Release them from their glass cage and enjoy their company in the wild:

Here are the 5 members of the big tetrahedron squad, aligned into a fine line.

Here they begin stacking each other again:

after years of not doing it, I’ve finally made a gemsona :3
idk if those pictures are different kinds of pyrite, but they’re all definitely pyrite. some are just iridescent like that.
though it’s definitely not my color, i LOVE pyrite for being able to form platonic solids. cubes are most common but these guys are a couple of octahedrons. they’re a lil special i love them.
Tumblr media
silly guys bubby and coomer from hlvrai. please watch it. the pyrites are probably some sort of scientists i guess because these two have been living in my brain
Tumblr media Tumblr media
bonus: my irl pyrite shaped into a stella octangula i love it i love it

A visual study of the Icosahedron inside an Octahedron - and the remaining tetrahedral modules
The tetrahedral modules:
Buckminster Fuller came up with these modules and called them "S modules" or "S quanta modules".
Here is a helpful summary:
