Catenary Kitties Вђ“ Fractal Kitty May 2026
This project is part of a larger series including other math-cat hybrids like the Hyperbolic Kittyoid , Klein Bottle Kitty , and Cantor Set Kitty Kong .
The project focuses on the catenary curve , the natural U-shape a chain or cable assumes under its own weight when supported at its ends. Catenary Kitties – Fractal Kitty
The generative logic and interactive elements are written in p5.js , a JavaScript library for creative coding. This project is part of a larger series
💡 You can explore Wood's other generative experiments and interactive sketches on her Fractal Kitty Blog or her Codepen gallery.

The catenary curve is vital in architecture, used in the design of arches (like the Gateway Arch) and suspension bridges to ensure stability.
