Wellcome to the ever First
Hyper Blob Home Page!

Yes!!!
The Hyper Blob is possible!

O Hyper Blob e eu. The first Hyper Blob was built in the first of march of 1999, at about two o'clock in the morning.

Hyper Blob is one of the various geometrical forms which can be built with the puzzle called Space Cubes.

Up to the above mentioned date, the Hyper Blob existed only as a mathematic model developed by the manufacturer and presented in the internet as a challenge for all lovers of the Space Cubes. Even the Space cubes manufacturer didn´t know if it should possible to build the Hyper Blob in real life.

And it was realy a hard challenge, not due to some mistery in the solution, but because this marvelous building is extremely instable.

And then, who built the First Hyper Blob?!
Me, Anselmo Blanco Dominguez, Brazilian!!!
I am 31 years old, working for the last 14 years in the area of informatics, doing a little bit of everything, but mainly developing systems. I don't know what has begun me first, my love for informatics or for the puzzles. After all, some times they look very much like each other.

Inexplicably brazilians domain the art of setting up the Space Cubes, a puzzle created by a Swiss and distributed world-wide by a British company.

Inexplicably for them! Who, in the official home page of the company, argue if the brazilians are from another planet. :-)

We are precisely from Earth and this notability is not new. After all, there are many areas where brazilians contrast. The rest of the world is taking time to get acquainted with this. :-)

Now let´s see some other photos of the main star.
