Irregular Solid (R2)

A Phase 1 recipe applied beyond the Platonic solids.

Recipe R2 on the irregular-mixed (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

Two adjacent faces 3.4 degrees from coplanar: R2 near a combinatorial transition, made visible.
