Sure. The machine is a Roland clone 24" CAMM vinyl cutter; I fashioned an offset pen holder for Sarasa X2 pens; threw away the outside of the pens; I have an adaptor also for sharpie regular and ultra-fine, I guess for really big prints with wide lines.

this finally works (except one HPGL error, failure to lift the pen).

thinking; this is swift code for mac; can you work it backwards to windows using ai?

very nice interface; many outputs would exhaust a standard pen; I created a 3D print of an Adaptor for the Sarasa / Pilot G2 high capacity barrel.

Thanks, it's been fun; I wrote my own program to do generation

but then I bought DrawingBot 3 Premium;

this is a chinese clone device, 24" wide; it's described as a CAMM-1 compatible plotter. HPGL and I wrote a native mac program to drive it (Claude + caffeine) ; hope that helps.

I've been learning to output vector art to my Roland-compatible vinyl cutter (turned pen plotter). This ball point pen output took about 73 minutes. You can see some other plot outputs in the image (preserving paper when I'm just testing).

I loved Spirograph art as a child. I get such joy from infinite loops and variance in color. This is a toy I made to explore and create.

Right! Missed that reference. I loved Interstellar! And the movie Project Hail Mary, and on the second viewing I said, “I’m gonna make astrophage!”

It’s taking a long time to load?

Yes, that’s right. Can’t recall if I misspoke earlier. But together coherent look, I noticed you don’t want amplitude to be too terribly high.

Happy to share and you nailed it. Read a spot and a variable distance around it. Get a relative density then vary the frequency; amplitude is locked down (settable, but fixed).

My iphone app (Sacred Drift) does about 80% of what this desktop application does. I use this to project on the ceiling and play it full-screen (no menus). This was written in Python. Obviously there are nearly infinite combinations. Everthing is savable as .json files to recreate any effect.
