ARTCYP Art in Cyprus, and a machine that draws Ελληνικά
Study for the Salt Crust, generative plate from seed 1387045015Forty-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. This plate is seed 1387045015 in the Buffer Grey palette. © 2026 artcyp.com

Forty-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. This plate is seed 1387045015 in the Buffer Grey palette.
