Deltoidal Icositetrahedron (R2)

A Phase 1 recipe applied beyond the Platonic solids.

Recipe R2 on the deltoidal icositetrahedron (how the recipes work): zeros at the vertex directions, each of order equal to the vertex's valence; poles at the polar face directions, each of order equal to the face's number of sides.

Note

Headline beyond-Platonic piece: degree 96, orders up to 4, octahedral symmetry.
