Yes, and in terms of computer graphics, now that you've experimented
with Bezier curves you can move on to Bezier splines, then to more
general B-splines. Back when I was in graphics (over twenty years
ago), a popular curve primitive was NURBS - non-uniform rational
B-splines. NURBS let you specify different (hence "non-uniform")
weights for the "knots" (control points), which affects how much they
influence curvature.

Then generalize them to surfaces for some real fun.
