For the infinity symbol polygon, wouldn't a possible way to do this is
by modeling a tear drop (see http://paulbourke.net/geometry/teardrop/
which does not require imaginary numbers) and duplicating the points
with opposite signs for the other half?

Dear List,
Bernd has produced an absolutely beautiful animation using a Lemniskate polygon
that was previously provided by Hermann Hoch. Can anyone provide some help on
how to create this polygon mathematically? Since the equation for a Lemniskate
involves the SqRt of negative numbers, which is not allowed in LC, I am stumped.
You can find Bernd’s animation here:
