Oops, the Magformers are back in our life. I thought that Simon was over Magformers (which he built with excessively when he was six), but he has picked them up again and taken them to a new level. He seems to be using Magformers to illustrate his increasingly philosophical thoughts in the pauses he takes between lessons and programming. Yesterday, he was quite disturbed after building with the mirror piece for a while and said: “What if two mirrors reflect each other? Would that stop time?” He added: “Just for safety, I’m going to put the mirror in the box. Never, never ever put two mirrors opposite to each other!”
And there is more! Magformers the company has actually contacted Simon on his YouTube channel, saying they loved his Magformers Table program he made in JavaScript and wanted Simon to send them an e-mail and to talk to him about it! Simon put his code on GitHub and shared it, you can view his Magformers Table online here:

He hasn’t made it interactive yet though. This was the original plan but he got stuck.
Geeks out of the box
