Description: Rusty Triangles is the github playground for Mike Garrity.
About Posts Mar 19, 2021 Where's This Train Going? I’m currently reading Julian Havil’s book Curves for the Mathematically Curious . The chapter on Euler’s spiral (which I’ve always known as the Cornu spiral) had a comment which reminded me of my days at Applicon .
OK, time for another teapot. This one is a combination of the two in this earlier post . The code which creates the geometry of the teapot is copied from the Rust example, and the code which does the rendering is copied from the WebGL example.
I was reading Roger Penrose’s old Pentaplexity paper recently. It’s about the history of his famous nonperiodic tile set. But I was particularly struck by one of the diagrams showing how he started by subdividing pentagons recursively. I wanted an interactive version to play with, so I made this . You can play with it here on github pages .
