Cubes, Spheres and Other Geometric Shapes in Science-Fiction and Horror Movies and Writings

I was thinking this the other day. Perfect shapes like circles, spheres, cubes and, of course, pyramids have captivated mankind since the dawn of civilisation. Perhaps it is because they do not conspicuously turn up in our natural world, except for such regular biologically formed objects like fruit shaped as spheres or beehive cells shaped as hexagons. By and large, if one jumped back to the stone age in a time machine, and had a wander about, coming across a near-perfect sphere or some other platonic solid or a pyramid in the natural world is unlikely. In the rare case of stumbling upon a rock or some other geological or topographical feature which is ‘too perfect’ in shape, we become intrigued, often to the point of suspicious. In the case of early man, it is often said that finding such an anomaly would have been met with a divine kind of reverence or be shunned with aberrant suspicion. The first thought that would come into the mind of modern man is, ‘OK. Who put that thing here?’ or ‘There’s no way that man could have done that. Must be aliens!’ <a href="https://medium.com/ironkeel/cubes-spheres-and-other-geometric-shapes-in-science-fiction-and-horror-movies-and-writings-91167956f795">Visit Now</a>
