Hello,

I would like to illustrate Ambisonics principles to my students and thought that would be nice to visualize spherical harmonics in 3d dynamically…

Has anyone tried this? Any codes/tips?

Thanks!

You might want to take a look at toxicilibs [spherical harmonics](https://github.com/postspectacular/toxiclibs/blob/master/examples/core/mesh/SphericalHarmonicsMeshBuilder/SphericalHarmonicsMeshBuilder.pde), you will need to replace OPENGL with P3D. I think there is also a processing.js version.
