Model of a Dropped Frame, generative plate from seed 3750787681One rectangle divided recursively. At each node the split usually runs across the longer side, at a ratio between 0.3 and 0.7. Division stops at depth eight, below 34 units, or on a 7% chance at any node. Every surviving cell is stroked with an inset, about one in five in an accent, and about one in ten also takes a translucent accent fill.

One rectangle divided recursively. At each node the split usually runs across the longer side, at a ratio between 0.3 and 0.7. Division stops at depth eight, below 34 units, or on a 7% chance at any node. Every surviving cell is stroked with an inset, about one in five in an accent, and about one in ten also takes a translucent accent fill. This plate is seed 3750787681 in the Kypros Copper palette.

The density is a count. The balance is an accident of the count.

There was no first attempt, so there is no better one.

Survey of the Venetian Wall, generative plate from seed 1739817429Three 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 1739817429 in the Kypros Copper palette. © 2026 artcyp.com

The stopping point was arithmetic, not judgement.
