#mathtober — Public Fediverse posts

It's Halloween! How could I resist a pumpkin for today's #inkyDays drawing?

And that's a wrap for this month of drawing, mostly from Math inspirations. All of this month's drawings and more are now posted for my supporters on Patreon and Ko-fi: https://www.patreon.com/posts/140222503

Today's Mathtober prompt is "Minor". For this one, I went with the vernacular meaning, and added some baby penguins with a 'grown up' penguin for today's #inkyDays drawing.

Today's Mathtober prompt is "Hexyl", and I found some pages on it over on Wolfram's math info site: https://mathworld.wolfram.com/HexylCircle.html

I decided to go with an abstraction and playing with a Chemistry inspired pattern.

Here's an in-progress shot.

Today's Mathtober prompt is "Recursion". Right away, sorting trees came to mind, and I decided to go with roots instead of branches in terms of a tree.

Here's an in-progress shot. Yes, I filled in the 'tree' recursively while drawing it by hand. I paused while drawing, and took a few in-progress shots.

#mathober day 28: #recursion

"More Bubbles": https://openprocessing.org/sketch/2696244

Okay, to be honest, this is an older sketch and I forgot if there even is a recursion in the code and if no one looks into the code, no one will find out. Most likely there is not.

I'm actually afraid of using recursions since I feel unsure of properly managing the termination conditions – BUT every recursion can be replaced by a loop and this would be my first choice anyway.

Today's Mathtober prompt is "bidiminished". The diagram at the bottom of this wikipedia page served as my inspiration for today's #inkyDays drawing. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gyrate_bidiminished_rhombicosidodecahedron

Yeah, I know it's a stretch, but it inspired me to draw dancing starfish. Here's an in-progress shot.

The finished drawing is on this months posts for my supporters on Patreon and Ko-fi: https://www.patreon.com/posts/140222503

Today's Mathtober prompt is "Amalgamation", so I decided to play with nested inclusions for today's #inkyDays drawing.

Here's an in-progress shot. The finished drawing is now posted for my supporters on Patreon and Ko-fi: https://www.patreon.com/posts/140222503

Playing with yesterday's pattern again, for today's #inkyDays drawing.

Today's Mathtober prompt is "Jacobian". Looking around for info on what this could possibly mean in Mathematics, I came across this wikipedia page(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jacobi_elliptic_functions).

The patterns, partway down the page, really appealed to me so I decided to play with them for today's #inkyDays drawing.

I haven't been posting for #mathober, but have been messing with compass and straightedge constructions, colored in with something like watercolor or pencil. Today's prompt, "chord", seems to fit this construction of a pentagon, which involves placing 5 chords within a circle.

#mathtober #euclid #geometry #chord #mathart #pentagon

A modular origami cube and a stella octangula. Each uses different units.

The stella octangula is a stellated regular octahedron and also the compound of two regular tetrahedra. It fits neatly inside a cube. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stellated_octahedron

From the exhibition "‘A Wonderful World, organised by the Embassy of Japan in Việt Nam and the Việt Nam Origami Group (VOG)’ … [showing works by] Mitya Miller, Nicolas Terry, and Tung Ken Lam, alongside new creations from VOG unveiled especially for the exhibition. … The exhibition runs until October 10 on the 4th floor, Gate C, at the Embassy of Japan, 27 Liễu Giai Street, with free admission." https://vietnamnews.vn/life-style/1726153/folding-fun-as-origami-art-springs-to-life.html

If PI Was 3...

... or better: If PI/3 was 1.

In physics lessons, I often estimate PI as 3, like this line wanting to fold itself into a equiliteral triangle with the inner angles of 1 instead of PI/3. After some efforts, it gave up and continued as a line.

If you enjoyed #SciArtSeptember, and wish it wasn't over, don't fret. It's now #Mathtober!

Already seeing some great math-art, and I'm loving it!

And finally, my #mathober #mathober2023 #mathtober video for day 31: RADIAL. https://youtu.be/3IeD3EKPdPA

Huge thanks to everyone who enjoyed my videos and said nice things, and even bigger thanks to anyone who didn't point out that 3 minutes and 14 seconds isn't π minutes ❤️🥳
