A gallery of math ideas you can play with

Simple rules. Surprisingly beautiful results.

Take a triangle. Add a small bump to the middle of every edge. Now do it again. And again. That's the whole rule behind the snowflake growing here.

Look, wonder, then make it yourself

Every piece here starts with a picture and a question. Then it shows you the tiny rule behind it, and hands the rule over to you.

See it first

Each idea opens with something to look at, not a formula. The words come after, gently, with what they mean.

Find the simple rule

Step by step, you'll see how a handful of instructions, repeated, can make something astonishing.

Change it and see

Nudge an angle, add a step, rewrite the rule. Right in your browser, with nothing to install.

No tests. No homework. Just curiosity.

You don't need to think of yourself as a "math person" to enjoy this. If you've ever doodled a spiral in the margin of a notebook, or stared at frost on a window, you've already met some of these ideas.

Teachers and parents are welcome too. The pieces are made to be shown on a big screen and explored together, with plenty of room for younger minds to try their own rules.
