Cartesian coordinates in 3 dimensions C017 / 6999
Cartesian coordinates in three dimensions, computer artwork. At centre is the origin (red). This lies at point 0, 0, 0, where the X Y and Z axes meet. A point (purple) is in position 7 along the X axis, 5 on the Y axis, and 8 on the Z axis. These coordinates are written as (7, 5, 8). Shadows of the purple point are cast on each of the three perpendicular planes. The three coordinates (x, y, z) can specify a point anywhere in three dimensional space

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of Cartesian coordinates in three dimensions. Created through computer artwork, it presents a visual representation of mathematical concepts that govern spatial relationships. At the heart of this artwork lies the origin, depicted in vibrant red hues. Positioned at point 0,0,0 where the X Y and Z axes intersect, it serves as a reference point for all other coordinates within this three-dimensional space. A striking purple point stands out against the black background, representing a specific position within this system. Its location is defined by its distances along each axis: 7 units on the X axis, 5 units on the Y axis, and 8 units on the Z axis. These values are denoted as (7,5,8), encapsulating its precise placement within Euclidean space. The play of light and shadow adds depth to this composition. Shadows cast by the purple point elegantly grace each perpendicular plane surrounding it—further emphasizing its presence within this geometric landscape. Through analytical geometry and mathematical precision, these Cartesian coordinates unlock infinite possibilities for understanding and navigating our world in three dimensions. This thought-provoking artwork invites us to appreciate both the elegance and complexity inherent in mathematics' ability to describe our physical reality accurately.
