parametric equation-driven pattern generator in grasshopper. i stopped each layer of this plot about halfway through because the negative space left by its pathfinding was so striking

CMY Pen Plotting 🩵🩷💛

[oldguydoesstuff]

When I worked at DEC in the 80s we had these HP 7580 pen plotters, absolute monsters that could do color plots on D-sized drafting paper, which is an enormous 22x34 inch work area. Slow but super cool to watch in action, and the results had that vector display accuracy you couldn't get on regular printers of the time.

(To be honest though what I saw it getting used for most was plotting gate array layouts for chips we were designing, so people could hang them in their office.)

went to strange lagrange this weekend and got some rad art from barn plotter. i'm not going to explain it correctly but the person had a machine that held a pen and it drew very precise intricate lines in a single color all over the page, then the person replaced the pen with a different color and it drew more lines, and so on, until you end up with the above works of art. the person designed it all on a computer and then told the machine to draw the lines.

truly fuckin cool.

A lot of my pen plotter work lately has been about dusting off old designs, but in my down time this week I played around with a wobbly checker pattern that I finally got to draw yesterday!
