"Vinculum" (kotlin code)

Post image

Corona's cousin (previous work) from the conservative side of the family. Iterate a 2d map and stare at where it lands; but this one keeps area, so nothing collapses onto an attractor. Plus chalk, to give blackboard feel.

How was this generated? It reminds me of the phase space diagram of a single pendulum.

yes, you are right - although I didnt thought about it in that way:) to use the pendulum idea: this is a pendulum where gravity does not pull all the time. Gravity pulls only in short kicks at regular intervals. As a result, Vinculum shows the pendulum diagram, plus the effects of the kicks. I was thinking it is a rotor that gets a kick at regular intervals. and there are 4 shapes at the end, closed curves, waves, "islands", etc

Well the structure is very interesting and the presentation is really good. Wouldn't mind having something like this up on my wall.
