Submission 1 - Your title here

"The Fabric of the Cosmos" -- The artistic masterpiece is made by recursively drawing incomplete circles. It is a representation of one of three possible shapes of the universe: spherical.

Certain theories of the universe predict that edges of space actually curl upon themselves, resulting in a universe with no edge.

This post-modernistic, non-Euclidean drawing captures the power of the human intellect and redefines the limits of human imagination. It is a timeless art piece that will undoubtedly continue to fascinate future civilizations.

There are two more skulls in the outer skull's teeth. These skulls represent the computation

of fib(7) as fib(7) = fib(6) + fib(5), so these two skulls have a pentagon (fib(6) = 5) and a

triangle (fib(5) = 3), respectively.
