This is probably an unexpected interpretation of #genuary12, "Boxes Only", but I like how it turned out. Thinking of different uses of the term "box" in mathematical contexts, somehow I recalled the Box-Muller transformation, named after George E. P. Box and Mervin Muller, used to convert uniformly-distributed random numbers into a normal distribution. This is a visualization of the Box-Muller transform (which includes some rectangular boxes in there for good measure).
