The helix is chiral (lacks mirror symmetry) and exists in two varieties, S and Z.
The book developed around the manufacturing conventions of coil bindings (which are far more widely available as Z helices), and the colors in the sculpture Square Helix (Z) which was included in an exhibition entitled The New Ambidextrous Universe at the ICA London in 2014.
