1. Preliminaries -- 1.1. Some mathematics -- 1.2. How Lissajous figures are formed 2. History -- 2.1. Nathaniel Bowditch and the Y-shaped pendulum -- 2.2. Jules Lissajous and his tuning forks -- 2.3. Hubert Airy's harmonographs 3. Harmonographs of all sorts -- 3.1. Oscillating mirrors -- 3.2. The kaleidophone -- 3.3. Oscillating blades -- 3.4. Pendulum harmonographs -- 3.5. The Y-shaped pendulum -- 3.6. The two-speaker apparatus -- 3.7. Other harmonographs of unusual design -- 3.8. The oscilloscope -- 3.9. The animated harmonograph -- 3.10. Harmonograph 'toys' -- 4. Lovely Lissajous figures.
Lissajous Figures are produced by combining two oscillations at right angles to each other. The figures, drawn by mechanical devices called harmonographs, have scientific uses, but are also enjoyed for their own beauty. The author has been working with harmonographs since his undergraduate days, building several of them, lecturing on them and has written articles about them. This book is intended for people who enjoy physics or art or both
