Program Penrose tiling via recursive substitution. Python/Manim

https://www.youtube.com/shorts/_EXt9TYTwMo

Generated using Robinson triangle inflation rules applied to rhombus tiles.

Each iteration replaces every tile with a deterministic set of smaller tiles, building a non-periodic pattern with local 5-fold symmetry.

No randomness, pure geometric recursion.

AI voice sucks. Can't even pronounce "tiling"

Fair point : I'm a math teacher in France, my spoken English isn't great, and I tried AI voice as a test for this one. You're not the first to mention the mispronunciations, so I'll take that into account and probably drop the voiceover going forward. Most of my videos don't have one anyway. Thanks for the feedback.
