r/gonwild

▲ 45 r/gonwild+1 crossposts

The frequency ratio 17:6 forces this curve to close perfectly and creates 11 loops (17-6=11) [OC]

Most people expect chaos from a double pendulum. But if both arms rotate at constant angular velocity, the result is pure deterministic symmetry. Change the ratio, change the number of loops : it's that simple. Coded with Manim & Python.

[A] This shape doesn't exist in 3D. And yet, here it is.

No cut. No trick.

The loop is perfect because the mathematics demand it.

What you're looking at is real, just not from this dimension.
