Model of a Held Breath, generative plate from seed 1778003089Three grids of parallel lines drawn over one another and rotated about the centre: one at zero, one at a small angle between 1.2 and 7.2 degrees, and a third at a negative fraction of that angle in an accent colour. The interference figure is never drawn. It is what your eye does with three grids that do not quite agree. This plate is seed 1778003089 in the Troodos Pine palette. © 2026 artcyp.com

Same palette, same system

Notes on the August Reservoir, generative plate from seed 660622688Nine centres, each emitting 34 closed rings whose radius grows as the 0.7 power of the ring index, so the spacing tightens as they widen. Each ring is a thirty-segment polygon pushed off true by a sinusoid whose amplitude grows with the index, and both stroke weight and opacity fall away as the rings get larger.

Notes on the August Reservoir

The stopping point was arithmetic, not judgement.

Notes on a Dry Cistern, generative plate from seed 1074816500Streamlines through a fixed vector field. Each of 220 lines starts at a random point and takes 110 steps of five units, turning at every step by the sum of three sinusoids of its current position. A line stops early if it leaves the plate. Roughly one line in seven is drawn in an accent rather than the ink colour, and each is given its own width and opacity. This plate is seed 1074816500 in the Troodos Pine palette. © 2026 artcyp.com
