Artist's Comments

The FSM tesselation is a representation of early pantheistic Pastafarian myth. In this cosmology all of space is covered by an infinite set of interlocked Flying Spaghetti Monsters. While the covering pattern is periodic, the eightfold way flavors of FSM are not; every patch of space has a unique flavor combination.

Also see a later incarnation of the tesselation, "Pa, sun god".

I found the basic motif of this tiling in a cyclic block replacement L-system.

A glowing paean to Pastafarianism! How did you generate these flying spaghetti monsters?

Sets of interlocked FSMs appeared dispersed in a 4-symbol recursive system, using a B/W 2x2 motif. Out of the void.

Sometime I'll post a short description of the system.

Looks like a few excited hydrogen and helium atoms in the Kitchen Nebulae, which I believe happens to be 100 light years away, which just happens to be the Celsius temperature to boil water, which all good FSMs need.

Mmmm, come to think of it, boiling water in a vacuum may be difficult for FSMs as it evaporates almost immediately. 2 minute noodles.:D

I had to look this up, how to cook noodles in space: [link]

Your right, it would be very difficult to cook pasta without a pressure vessel. Maybe this is why there is Pa (heat source) and earth (pressure cooker). An intelligent design!

Aha, very intelligent design but you forgot the cheese!
There is a great ball of matured cheese orbiting the pressure cooker!
I reckon 4.5 billion years in the cooler room would make it a sharp but tasty bite. :yum:
