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.

Reading of Standing Water

The density is a count. The balance is an accident of the count. Looking longer will not change it, though it may change you.

Nine 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. This plate is seed 3851594142 in the Mesaoria Ochre palette.

Evidence of Varosha

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

It is younger than the page it is printed on.

Second Rain on Limestone, generative plate from seed 2570200471Streamlines 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.
