Archaic Mathematical Art – and Poetry – from Code
What is the simplest way of creating art with code? I have been using software frameworks for mathematics and graphics in the past year. They "abstract away" how you actually place the dots on the virtual canvas. But I want something ancient, with a clear-cut boundary. My choice is the language C: created in the 1970s, used for the core parts of operating systems. C comes with a small standard library, containing the functions for basic tasks, like reading and writing files. The standard […]https://elkement.art/2026/02/26/archaic-mathematical-art-and-poetry-from-code/

There are a number of mathematical curves that produced heart shapes, some of which are illustrated above. A "zeroth" curve is a rotated cardioid (whose name means "heart-shaped") given by the polar equation r(theta)=1-sintheta. (1) The first heart curve is obtained by taking the y=0 cross section of the heart surface and relabeling the z-coordinates as y, giving the order-6 algebraic equation (x^2+y^2-1)^3-x^2y^3=0. (2) A second heart curve is given by the...
"The Thief's Journal"
My fellow prisoners were moths. They danced frantically beneath the light, blinded by that dangerous urge to disregard the risks. Stupid bastards.

Coffee-Powered Stargate
Let me open the Stargate of Diffraction for you, once again! This is as close as I ever got to a plain scientific visualization: No 3D effects, just the intensity of diffracted radiation as a function of position in space. If you use a sun catcher - a film with a diffraction grating - the peaks in such images are where you would see bright blurry spots of rainbow […]"Pattern Recognition"
She’s at the screen and won’t let it go.
"We have to split, kid. Now!"
"Almost got it. It’s not random."
"They'll lock down the zone any moment."
"But I can see the pattern."
"THIS ZONE IS OFF LIMITS!"
