One Rolling Point Blooms 35 Petals

BEHIND THE WORK

One rolling point blooms 35 petals.

A small circle rolls inside a larger ring, carrying an attached point across 8 full turns. As parameter t advances through x(t) = 81(cos t + cos 27t/8) and y(t) = 81(sin t − sin 27t/8), 35 glowing petals and an intricate geometric rosette bloom into one continuous luminous drawing.

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

THE MATHEMATICAL RULE

x(t)=81(cost+cos27t/8)x(t) = 81 (cos t + cos 27t/8)y(t)=81(sint−sin27t/8)y(t) = 81 (sin t − sin 27t/8)0≤t≤16π0 ≤ t ≤ 16π
