It's gonna be a bright, bright r = [1/2 + k|cos(6θ)/2| / (1 + 4sin²(24θ)) - sin(48θ)/50]; 0 < k < 2 day!

(aka fun with polar equations)

For #genuary10, Polar Coordinates, here is a stylized plot of
r = 4 + ⌈θ/4 + 2cos(3.3θ)⌉

poline is lightweight, dependency free and fast JavaScript function written in TypeScript. It draws lines between anchors over polar coordinates to generate pleasing color palettes.

Fast 3D Printing With A Polar, Four Quadrant Custom Machine

3D printing is all well and good for making low numbers of units, so long as they’re small enough to print in a reasonable time, but what if you want to go really big? Does a 35-hour print ti…

Genuary 2024

This year’s Genuary code is here (I will update as I go through the prompts). My codepen gallery is here. I am hoping to play with symmetry the entire month. Day-31 – generative music (…

Pen Plotter Uses Polar Coordinates

To keep track of a location in a two-dimensional space, two measurements are needed. Most of the time, we would naturally think to do this by the Cartesian method, measuring position along one axis…
