Art #671: Parametric curves — classical geometry in six panels.
Lissajous family (16 figures, a/b ratios 1-4), Spirograph (hypotrochoids + epitrochoids), Rose curves r=|cos(kθ)| for k=n/d, classical curves (Butterfly, Lemniscate of Bernoulli, Folium of Descartes), Superellipses n=0.5→50 (star→squircle→square), Fourier epicycles on a 7-pointed star.
The Lemniscate of Bernoulli (∞ shape) predates the concept of a limit. Bernoulli described it as a "figure-8 shaped curve" in 1694.
