hilbert and epicycles

Fourier transformation.

Fourier said: give me enough circles spinning at the right speeds, and I'll draw you anything. Anything. Your face. A coastline. The entire universe. This animation is that promise made visible.

Horrible animation, why it didn't end where it began and just "jumps" to that point?

its doable via mirroring the curve but then it won't be this!

@JaviStitch Wait, are you saying that it doesn't repeat? What sort of pattern does it draw after the first cycle? Is it increasingly random? I'm very curious to actually see!

@JaviStitch no, i was interpreting their question more towards why two ends didn't join together cleanly (from L and R). otherwise, it will repeat the same pattern if we loop it again.

oh my structured space filling chaos

大変美しいのです。どうやってこれを考え付いたのでしょうか。

just random variation. been doing some earlier like this-

Imagine driving a CNC machine using epicycles rather than G-code.

Wonder if that's how they originally did hatching in CAD?

In 1983, responding to the success of movies such as Jason and the Argonauts, Hercules, and Clash of the Titans, Turkish filmmaker Derya Öztürk made the low budget film Hilbert and Epicycles. It played once to a crowd of 57 and no known copies remain to this day.

This is a good approximation of how to predict a woman’s emotional state.

Imagine this kinda stuff in more dimensions

Ah, the way it uncurls for the finishing touches... This is pornographic...

unreasonably ordered

Beautiful! ❤️

wow

whoa, that was cool

I know rationaly that it's true but still can't believe it.

I hate you so much, haha

Wow! superb!

Is that ai Brian matter?

so the knights templar…

If we applied this to all the orbits of all the planets around all the stars in the universe maybe theres a message waiting for us

ayy that's a fun pattern for fourier epicycles

I don't believe it

Hermoso

👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

confused how i somehow unfollowed you months ago apparently! good to be back

That is really cool!
