I was too curious to wait for 12.2 and upgraded to macOS Big Sur (11.0.1). I did not have any problem whatsoever with Mathematica 12.1.1. I use a iMac27inch 3.6 GHz Intel core I9. I also do not have the problem mentioned by George Woodrow and do...
![enter image description here][1] It looks hard to decipher the text in the above image : that's because it is a cylindrical anamorphic image. This means you need a cylindrical mirror and a specific viewpoint to interpret the image correctly. I...
![enter image description here][1] In a previous Wolfram Demonstration [Pendulum with Varying Length or How to Improve Your Next Swing Ride][2], I modelled a swing and rider system as a pendulum with varying length. Inspired by the article...
During all of history, people have looked for better ways to move water from one place to the other. [This F.A.O. website][1] gives an overview of the many screw pumps invented over the centuries. Some interesting examples are the [Archimedes screw...
![enter image description here][1] I took the chrome plated conical mirror used in my [previous Wolfram Community contribution][2], suspended it upside down, and asked myself the (anamorphism) question : what should a (deformed) image look like to...
Glad you're interested. You may have look at one of my previous contributions: "[Anamorphic Clock and other Reflections in a Conical Mirror][1]". Let me know if you plan to do something with conical or cylindrical mirrors. [1]:...
![enter image description here][1] We all know that what you see depends on your viewpoint or, as Mathematica says, the *ViewVector*. If you look with one eye or a camera at a 3D scene, you see a "[3D Perspective Projection][2]" of the scene. So...
![enter image description here][1] The above GIF of a cube skeleton demonstrates the principle of "Perspective Anamorphism": you need a particular viewpoint to see the picture undeformed. All other viewpoints give a deformed picture. In the paper...
Super cool GIFs you make, Clayton! I always use the "**Online GIF maker and image editor**" at [EZGIF.com][1] Did you ever try this? It is very easy to use and gives you complete control after you have created a GIF file in Mathematica. [1]:...
