So I've got a small discovery I just made, wondering if we can figure out what's going on.
I have no idea what's going on but 3b1b did a video on something similar a while ago. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EK32jo7i5LQ

Also there are a lot of these cool number visualizations. Most recently I came across this one. The math and code website is pretty cool but I couldn't find the algebraic numbers picture on it.

Thank you, that's such an awesome visualization. I found that even just plotting random 2D functions can be very beautiful, for example these are some that I've once made:

with formulas:

Code: Select all

gaussian_curve((x^2) mod (abs(sin(x + y)) + 0.001) + (y^2) mod (abs(sin(x - y)) + 0.001))
sqrt(abs(sin(x + cos(y + sin(x + cos(y)))) * sin(y + cos(x + sin(y + cos(x))))))
r = sin(1.2 * y + 2.5 * sin(x) + 2 * cos(2.25 * y) * sin(x)); log(2 * sqrt(abs(r)) - r)
(I've written a browser tool for these but it somehow lags in new browsers now, not sure why. https://www.tastyfish.cz/functionplot.html)
love everyone, help selflessly

That tool is fucking sick dude. This is probably the coolest one I've been able to make so far.

Code: Select all

return (hash16(gauss((x) % ((y) % (f)))));

The ones you made kinda remind of of M.C. Escher tile paintings but more abstract.
