A spiral of dancing triangles…just because.
Continue reading Dancing Triangles: Sunday Maths Animations Week 9Earlier this week I was proofreading a book that mentioned Pythagorean spirals. I had seen them before but never thought about them too deeply, so I gave them a try in GeoGebra. I filled them in with curves of pursuit, just for fun!
Continue reading Pythagorean Spiral meets Pursuit Curves: Sunday Maths Animations Week 8Week 7 of my Sunday Maths Animations is another one that started out as a cardioid. Varying a different parameter gives a completely different effect.
Continue reading More Cardioid Rainbows: Sunday Maths Animations Week 7Week 6 of my Sunday Maths Animations started out as a cardioid, but quickly became something else.
Continue reading Cardioid Rainbow: Sunday Maths Animations Week 6Week 5 of my Sunday Maths Animations is a Pythagorean tree, drawn point by point.
Continue reading Pythagorean Tree: Sunday Maths Animations Week 5Week 4 of my Sunday Maths Animations is my old favourite the Rhodonea curve, rendered with spheres. The ending is extremely satisfying!
Continue reading Rhodonea Spheres: Sunday Maths Animations Week 4Week 3 of my Sunday Maths Animations grew from a puzzle at February’s MathsJam that involved calculating the shaded area in a shape involving infinitely recursing circles. Can you tell which circles are changing in size and which are staying the same?
Continue reading Infinitely Zooming Circles: Sunday Maths Animations Week 3For week 2 of my Sunday animations I’ve stuck with circles, this time on a harmonograph curve (which is a relation of the Lissajous curves).
Continue reading Circles on a Harmonograph Curve: Sunday Maths Animations Week 2I’ve been enjoying making animations in Geogebra recently, and have decided to try publising one every week on YouTube. Here is week 1.
