Can Math Tie a Knot?

BEHIND THE WORK

Can math tie a knot?

This piece traces the trefoil knot using the complete parametric system x = (2 + cos 3t) cos 2t, y = (2 + cos 3t) sin 2t, and z = sin 3t. One continuous curve loops through three-dimensional space without crossing itself.

Artismathic turns equations into visual art—one function at a time.
