Show HN: Strange Attractors
A few months back, while playing around with Three.js, I came across something that completely derailed my plans. Strange attractors – fancy math that creates beautiful patterns. At first I thought I’d just render one and move on, but then soon I realized that this is too much fun. When complexity emerges from three simple equations, when you see something chaotic emerge into beautiful, it’s hard not to waste some time. I’ve spent countless hours, maybe more than I’d care to admit, watching these patterns form. I realized there’s something deeply satisfying about seeing order emerge from randomness. Let me show you what kept me hooked. Heads UpMost of what I’ve learned about strange attractors comes from working on this visualization. If you’re seeking advanced mathematical explanations,…
