I like to think of this bird as AI and its output. 💩

NURBS chick. 🙂 You know, Non-Uniform Rational B-Splines, bro. 🤘😉
Modeled in the MoI 3D editor, rendered in Blender.

@metin Very cute Merin, I had to check the B part:
The B in splines means Basis, a mathematical term going way back to 19 th centuary.
The term B-Spline is newer and the definition is beyond my tiny mind:
"A B-spline is defined as a piecewise polynomial of order n {\displaystyle n}, meaning a degree of n − 1 {\displaystyle n-1} "
From Wiki https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/B-spline
@mbt3d Interesting! The NURBS Wiki page is also a nice read:
@mbt3d @metin Wikipedia's math pages are always obtuse. They want to be rigorous, concise, and thorough, and that doesn't work to explain concepts.
If you're interested in the types of splines and their math (big if), I recommend this video. It explains things a little slower, with helpful animations throughout.
When I don't undertand anything on a wikipedia page, immediately open it in another tab and search the term on it 😁
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polynomial
I studied this type of equations when I was 13 yo in the school.
