My experience of contributing to an open-source project for the first time and the juicy details (maths) of the geometry of the Sferical lamps (the ones that hang in Heaven / Silent Lounge) I'd like to take you with me on how I build a generator for spherical lampshades. I'll talk about how math slowly turns into magic. The math is mainly trigonometry, so we can reminisce about highschool. But don't worry too much about it. It will be visualised, so everyone can follow along. The real magic happens when we introduce light into the equation, illuminating the creations in stunning ways. Plus, since this project is open source, you'll have the opportunity to craft your own unique lampshades! Or hack it into something else entirely...
