Not-so-coincidentally, each language in my list embodies a distinct computational model. In no particular order: The ALGOL family. C…
Ellipses & Splines again
After some code cleanup and generalisation, I can now modulate whole splines onto ellipses and onto splines themselves. Here is my simple 4-bezier spline modulated onto an ellipse: And onto itself: Repeatedly modulating a spline onto itself while varying the frequency parameter leads to some interesting and fractal patterns. Nice.
