ARTCYP Art in Cyprus, and a machine that draws Ελληνικά
Crossing at the August Reservoir, generative plate from seed 1503051030Forty-six bands stacked from the top down, each one a closed shape lying between two sine curves of differing amplitude, frequency and phase. The bands overlap, because each advances the cursor by only 62% of its own height. About one band in six is filled in an accent at higher opacity than the rest; the stack stops early if it runs past the bottom edge. This plate is seed 1503051030 in the Carob palette. © 2026 artcyp.com

Forty-six bands stacked from the top down, each one a closed shape lying between two sine curves of differing amplitude, frequency and phase. The bands overlap, because each advances the cursor by only 62% of its own height. About one band in six is filled in an accent at higher opacity than the rest; the stack stops early if it runs past the bottom edge. This plate is seed 1503051030 in the Carob palette.

The parts do not know about each other.

Approach to Rain on Limestone, generative plate from seed 1027005004Nine 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.

It could have been drawn on paper in 1968 by somebody very patient.
