Lissajous 3D
-
Version
3.0
Make the harmonious and beautiful Lissajous patterns
and spirographs taken into 3D. The patterns flow and
transform as you watch with ripples of colour and
light. Wrap any picture over the patterns. As the
curves animate, your pictures twist and turn like
reflections in a hall of mirrors!
The original 2D Lissajous patterns were traced by a
beam of light reflected from mirrors attached to two
tuning forks (in the C19). You can take them into 3D
by using vibrations in three or more directions.
Lissajous 3D traces these curves using a ribbon, or a
tube.
Also you can make spirographs - those patterns made by
rolling wheels within or around each other. You can
add 3D spiral effects to the spirographs.
Includes a randomiser which helps you to generate new
patterns of your own.
