Polar Coordinate Flower Pendant

This Polar Coordinate System Flower Pendant was created for Ultimaker's Design Engine Challenge Week 7. The challenge was to design an object that expresses the beauty of math. The parameter cards for this challenge are âcomplexâ and âprivateâ, while the gameplay card is âreverseâ which means that one of these parameters can be expressed as its opposite. Many people think of math as right or wrong, a utilitarian function. I think of math as a beautiful, elegant way to understand and describe the world around me. Graphing the equation, r = 4cos(2Ï´) in a polar graph yields a plot that resembles a flower. I use these as small trinkets on a charm bracelet. The derivative is r = -8sin(4Ï´) which yields a bigger plot which I use as a pendant for a necklace. This solution is âcomplexâ because a graph of the derivative was used to generate the larger necklace pendant. Applying the âreverseâ gameplay card to the âprivateâ parameter card gives a twist, the pieces generated are worn as jewelry in public.
