Desmos Plays "Never Gonna Give You Up" using 1,500,000 Curves

~2000 Bézier Curves per Frame, at 25 Frames each second, multiplied by 30 seconds makes ~1,500,000 Bézier Curves. Each frame was plotted programmatically on the Desmos graphing calculator using custom software: github.com/BenMullan/GraphPictures

If you are want to see a bit more about how this sort of thing can be done, do take a look at some of the experimental Graphs I produced along the way:

Thanks for watching!

    Now you gotta make the audio from the “hear graph” feature in Desmos
  • We're no strangers to Graphs You know the Functions, and so do I A big equation is what I'm thinking of You wouldn't get this if you multiply or divide

    This guy counted to 1,500,000, and did it just to entertain us. What a legend.
  • @avashapava1528
    I’ll love to show this to my math teacher and say, ”I’m learning.”
  • This is legitimately amazing. How TF does this not have more views?
  • @niceboi6364
    I don't know if it's possible but now I want a full version of this.
  • Oh my god, how long would this have to take and it has THIS FEW VIEWS? Absolutely outrageous, algorithm please bless this video, it deserves it

    Mom: What is this "128 cores Threadripper" thing in your Christmas wishlist for? This guy: you will never get it
  • @EpiCuber7
    This is INCREDIBLE how does it not even have 301 views
  • @alexander191297
    Never gonna math you up! Never gonna sin you down! Never gonna cos around and transform you! Never gonna let you tan, never gonna say “derive”! Never gonna tell a pi, and log you!
  • @olimon675
    Dude this is amazing, should definetely have MUCH MORE views!!
  • @kinokoxd99
    Nice effort man,that probably taking very long time to make such a beautiful master piece
  • @Adam-xf6sq
    Teacher: the math test isn’t that hard What we have to graph on the test:
  • @manjuegazos4672
    ... You wouldn't get this from any other line Y just wants the equation of X Gotta make you, sum substract Never root a negative Never divide by zero Never do the logarithm of zero Never do the floor of Y Never do the tan of 90 Never put the zero to its own power
