Provisional the Slow Channel, generative plate from seed 3123923918Nine 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.

What looks like a choice is a threshold being crossed. Looking longer will not change it, though it may change you.

The same number will build it again tomorrow, exactly.

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

Notes on Varosha, generative plate from seed 3616259906Three 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 3616259906 in the Troodos Pine palette. © 2026 artcyp.com
