Not #polygonSquiggles or #wedgeSquiggles this time. But nevertheless it is a squiggle drawing.

Can you tell how these pictures differ?
How do the differences affect how they are perceived by the viewer?
An 8-fold pattern using the same basic idea, but with 2π/24-#rhombusworms instead.
More squiggle art.
This one involves #crescentSquiggles, which I got by finding a way to apply my squiggle algorithm (https://mathstodon.xyz/@HypercubicPeg/108315553189253657 ) to #rhombusWorms.
It is a variation on the piece “Deception in the Shadows” which was shown at Bridges a few years ago.
Attached: 4 images (1/3) For those of you wondering what I have been talking about when mentioning using #polygonSquiggles and #wedgeSquiggles in my art, here is a bit of stuff that I wrote about how the idea developed. #mathart #mathsart
The 6-fold version
Something that I did last year out of 2π/60-#rhombusworms
Clips from the rhombusworm video.
The first shows equilateral (but not necessarily equiangular) polygons rotating to form n-fold rhombus rosettes. In particular, if n is even, then they can be generated by rotating regular n-gons around a point, but if n is odd, it can work with somewhat squished (n+1)-gons formed by merging two equilateral n-gons in a particular way.
The second shows rhombusworms rotating to form the same rosettes.
If you want an #Introduction to what manner of weird person I am (at least some of the time) you can try watching this

But be aware that I may a different sort of weird person at other times 🤪
<I couldn’t figure out how to embed it or show a picture instead of the link, so here is a GIF of a small bit involving a Cheshire cat…the full video is about 3 1/2 minutes>
