CircleAt9Points

For the 21st sketch of Mathober2024, CircleAt9Points is coded in LiveCodeLab through nine angles (“Points”) of a Sphere/Circle, which is the 6th prompt (Nine Point Circle) of this year’s Mathober. Adding more emphasis on the number 9, there were nine color modifications made through Glitchlab.

Poetry

Circles Departure 
Lines Stay
they want to go
but they can only vibrate
so they resonate 
through simple sounds
as the Circles depart this town
even though stationary, they still play
as the Circles pack for their departure
