Lissajous curves are curves that follow sinusoidal motion in both the vertical and horizontal directions simultaneously but with independent periodicity

so the earring is read as the binary number 0010

If you look carefully you can see that it was constructed by combining two hypercubes

On a chessboard

You can count that one curve bounces horizontally three times while bouncing vertically twice

Koch Tetrahedron Earrings (Nylon) Binary Numbers Lissajous curves are curves thatThese earrings represent a three dimensional fractal. Start off with a tetrahedron (a 3D shape made of four triangles glued together). On each of the four sides, build up a smaller tetrahedron. This new shape has many more smaller triangular sides and is sometimes called a merkaba. On each of the triangular sides of the new shape, build up an even smaller tetrahedron. I've stopped here for this design, but if you keep going (placing smaller and
