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.

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.

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.
