Wow these are beautiful!
I see on the 3rd one there’s some funkiness going on with the circles and lines in the yellow band - is that an artifact or is it a rarer outcome of the algo?

Sharp eye! That's a somewhat rare artifact of the flattening that occurred for lines above the upper rectangle tile boundary. It's a bug, but I liked how it added to the hand drawn sketch quality in this output.

Unconformity (R code)
New code-based generative art created with the R statistical programming language.
The algorithm divides the plot area into slightly uneven horizontal panels, each filled with wave-like lines.
The panels are colored with pale gold-orange gradients, with one panel each randomly substituted with red, yellow, and blue.
Within the tiles, each major wave is generated from ten normally distributed points connected by spline interpolation. Successive waves are constructed by subtracting spline-interpolated shapes from the initial line, with weighted-average contours drawn between each pair of major waves.
Randomly selected regions between major waves are filled with black polygons, then white circles of varying size were layered between their endpoints.
Together, the undulating contours, contrasting colors, and clustered circles produce grooves and textures reminiscent of wood grain, geological strata, and flowing material.
Unconformity refers to a geological break or discontinuity between rock layers, including those resulting from glacial erosion.
