 is inspired by the meeting point of digital precision and analog unpredictability. The core building block of the algorithm that generated this image is quite simple: try to place sequential dots along a line. What makes the results interesting are its departures from the perfect form. Small errors stack up and accumulate, cascading into divergent and unpredictable artifacts. This type of variation happens naturally in a medium like painting but, when working through an algorithm, it becomes a rare blessing.
