conic section ellipse 02b
I thought I needed a better conic section, so I set up a different render with shadows and a white background.
This is duplicated because I needed one that would be a good size for posting on internet fora.
You know, I think I would really like to study geometry more deeply, best yet as the mathematics of computer graphics. But I would want to study it à la carte, just choose whichever topics seem interesting and fruitful to me, without having to do things in the order someone else decided was best. No prerequisites either. Because if I have to know the math before I can use it then I will never use most of it, because I won't find most of it to be worth my time until I have an application to which it is an essential tool.
That's how I think math and physics should be taught, as the tools you need in order to construct your own video game.
