Ball of Whacks

Ball of Whacks is a physical tool to inspire creativity. Made up of 30 pyramid shaped magnetic elements, this orb-like geometric figure starts as a solid shape of magnetic blocks.  Author, and toy-maker Roger von Oech, whose focus has been on the study of creativity, designed Ball of Whacks as a new way to stimulate the thinking process. Based on the rhombic triacontahedron, the possibilities for creating forms are unlimited.
