How could you leave Desmos alone like that? >:(

So i am trying to make a galaxy in desmos that is similar to the one above, and i am planning to put a 4 pointed star in the middle of it, i have successfully made a 4 pointed star using this graph 4 pointed star and so i put it into my galaxy graph. And so the way im getting color is restricting a black rectangle to certain functions, but when i put the star in and tried restricting the rectangle to it, it ermmmm failed :(. it turns out that only the outline of the star looks like a star, when you change the equal sign in the star equation IT TURNS INTO A CIRCLE UGHHHHHHHH im so madddddddddddddddd. if yall are helping and need anything just leave a comment for help on navigating my terrible organizational skills.

Just a cool 3D illusion with polygons.

This has been done before, but previous showcases of Bad Apple in Desmos were either not in real-time, did not include audio, or were very pixelated. Here, it's in real-time, without any external image storage sites, and of decent quality instead of being very pixelated.

I know Perlin noise has been done a lot already but I decided to take a stab at it myself to try to understand it better.

"recreation" (tweaked a lot) of a cool gif i found, looks interesting :3

i used any images i had on my pc for the textures

edit: changed images to brick textures

The user instructions are included in the graph, as well as how it works. If you have any other questions, feel free to ask me in the comments.

Pictures:

1. The Klein's J-Invariant function in terms of the complex nome q, |q| < 1.
2. The boundary of the 1st graph contains interesting hyperbolic geometry.
3. sin(1/z), as you zoom in, you can see the oscillations that get faster as you go closer to 0.
4. Another modular form, the Eisenstein-E6 function also of the nome q, |q| < 1.
5. z^2 - 1, you can see the zeros +-sqrt(2).

I discovered the color map feature in Desmos 3D a while ago and I instantly had this idea.

The plotter is fast, but I can't do very much with it, because the color map doesn't support recursion or variable sum limits. I Also I don't love the small viewport of the 2D view in Desmos 3D here.

The functions: arcsin, arctan, arcsinh, ... don't work, so I also re-implemented them using the complex logarithm.

I would love a feature in Desmos 2D, where you would create a 2-variable function that would output a color: f(x, y) = rgb(...). This would plot the color map across the entire screen.

Enjoy!

A few months ago I made a shadow system for circles, but I didn't figure out a way to do it with polygons.

Turns out I was overthinking it and it's actually way easier than the circles one.

This system works perfectly for convex polygons of any size, but because it basically simulates translucent shapes (drawing a seperate shadow for each side), it doesn't look quite as good with concave polygons.

The shadows shrink when the light source "sun" is close to the points they are cast from. I haven't worked on fixing this yet.

desmos should fix this soon

i really like it

Decided to remove all the custom colors from my artworks to see how they'd look like

Somehow they still look decent with these colors
