Abstract
A squircle is an intermediate shape between the square and the circle. In this paper, we propose equations for a new type of squircle and present an algorithm to map the Poincaré disk to this shape. Furthermore, we use this algorithm as a framework for hyperbolic animation, whereupon we morph the Poincaré disk into a square.
