conversation octahedron

This eight sided dice was made for a research project and art installation about equity in computerscience and is part of a "game" to get a conversation about these topics started.

this is only the 3d files for printing the dice itself. the full description of the maker part of the project can be found at : (to be announced)
and the publication and project page can be found at : (to be announced)

the dice has slots for 5X5mm cylindrical neodymium magnets which should be glued in using superglue. The sides for the dice is cut from thin steel-sheets so they can be held in place by the magnets. we used 0.6 mm but you can go even thinner without any problems.
the sides are 80mm equal sided triangles. we used an angle grinder to cut them but shears should also be possible.
