Art, Arts An artist who works in the style of cubism.
To the world at large, relativity seemed to pull the rug out from under perceived reality. And for many advanced thinkers of the 1920s, from Dadaists to Cubists to Freudians, that was a fitting credo, reflecting what science historian David Cassidy calls "the incomprehensiveness of the contemporary scene--the fall of monarchies, the upheaval of the social order, indeed, all the turbulence of the 20th century."1999 December 27, Frederic Golden, “Albert Einstein (1879-1955): Person of the century”, in CNN:

[…] as far as I know there is no standard word describing the art of playing with the cube. Cubing? Cubistics? Rubikonomia? or perhaps Rubikomania? Can the science (or art) of doing it be called “cubology”, as suggested by Scientific American? Some enthusiasts borrow “cubism” and call themselves “cubists”, all very reminiscent of the 1920s three dimensional, modern art phase.[1982 March 18, Stephan Sulyak, “Review: The magic cube (A Büvös Kocka)”, in New Scientist, volume 93, number 1297, →ISSN, page 734:
Being a new reader of this group and a novice cubist, I'm not familiar with either of these notations. Would someone please fill me in? Thanks in advance for the help.1992 May 5, SH...@slacvm.slac.stanford.edu, “Re: God's algorithm again for Rubiks Cube, was Re: combinatorial puzzl”, in rec.puzzles (Usenet):
