Go Ahead, Play With This Trippy Animation

Function Plot Observable

This is a fun thing to play around with: an animated function plot by Jeff Baumes at Observable. Everything at Observable is done in “notebooks” that can be changed by anyone viewing a page. The easiest thing is to modify the “value”…e.g. change “sin” to “cos” or “tan”, but you can also monkey with the scale. I dorked around with this for almost 20 minutes this morning…you’re welcome.

P.S. This pairs well with Tycho’s Burning Man DJ set.
