OJ SHOWED ME THIS
STYLE OVER SUBSTANCE





‘The purpose of this project is to fill the information vacuum about the life and art of Stefan Kanchev. The quality of his works is so high that they are worthy to be shared with more people. Kanchev is the author of more than 1000 trade marks and symbols, 650 stamps, posters, post cards and envelopes, book covers, packaging and etc. It turned out that the gathering and processing of Kanchev’s art were very difficult tasks mainly because most of the works have sunk in the past. But the start is made. This project is a result of two years of hard work and doesn’t claim to be comprehensive. The work is not finished, actually it starts now and begins to evolve. The project is open to all who would like to contribute. Any information about Stefan Kanchev is welcome and would enrich the site. All signals of discrepancies or inaccuracies regarding project names, years or information are also welcome.’ - stefankanchev.com
JKR showed me these. He’s good at things like that.



A single point can be considered as a zero dimensional
cube, two points joined by a line are a one
dimensional cube, four points arranged in a square are
a two dimensional cube and eight points or nodes are an ordinary
three dimensional cube. Continuing this geometric
progression, the first hypercube has 16 nodes and is a
four dimensional shape (as above and
bearing in mind we cannot actually “see” in four dimensions)

A hypercube is a mathematical object in more than three dimensions.
Similar to the cube in that each two-dimensional surface of
the object is a square. It is a generalisation of a cube in more
than three dimensions.
