Notes on the Ninth Hour

Every line had a reason, and none of the reasons was taste. It is indifferent, and the indifference is not a pose.

Same palette, same system

Evidence of the Green Line, generative plate from seed 3912980065One 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 is the only version. There were never any others.

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