Second Akamas, generative plate from seed 294107493Three 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 294107493 in the Buffer Grey palette. © 2026 artcyp.com

The same number will build it again tomorrow, exactly.

Study for a Dry Cistern, generative plate from seed 1019292869Streamlines through a fixed vector field. Each of 220 lines starts at a random point and takes 110 steps of five units, turning at every step by the sum of three sinusoids of its current position. A line stops early if it leaves the plate. Roughly one line in seven is drawn in an accent rather than the ink colour, and each is given its own width and opacity. This plate is seed 1019292869 in the Buffer Grey palette. © 2026 artcyp.com

It was not composed so much as permitted.

Model of Two Registrations, generative plate from seed 1440352330Forty-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.
