Crossing at the Ninth Hour, generative plate from seed 619467694Three 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 619467694 in the Buffer Grey palette. © 2026 artcyp.com

Nothing here is a mistake, and nothing here was avoided.

Study for the Slow Channel, generative plate from seed 3792375678Forty-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.
