chris bly @chrisxbly.bsky.social · 10/10/2026Genuary 18: unexpected path, one simple rule This program is pretty straightforward. Starting at 0 it counts up and only oscillates when it hits a prime number. If the line is up it goes down, if down it goes up. 040

chris bly @chrisxbly.bsky.social · 05/10/2026Genuary 17: wallpaper group I decided to have another go at this prompt. I wanted something a little more generative. Something that gave a different outcome each time. Still used like 5 different shades of grey here. 010
chris bly @chrisxbly.bsky.social · 22/09/2026Genuary 7: Boolean algebra . I was originally gonna do something with logic gates diagrams but the results weren’t very interesting, so I landed on a sort of chip design program. 041

chris bly @chrisxbly.bsky.social · 27/03/2025(also you can probably accomplish the same with just a point, but I like the small circle because I can see it easier in Inkscape and line up my ink or paint tray accordingly, and it has the added benefit of picking up more ink.) 030
chris bly @chrisxbly.bsky.social · 27/03/20252/2 copy paste the same small circle in the same place before each block and then be sure to set the axidraw to strictly follow vector order and it should make that dip before going back to each block. Not sure if that makes sense. 120
chris bly @chrisxbly.bsky.social · 27/03/2025Hey Joel. My pen dipping is written in the code, but you can absolutely accomplish this with Inkscape. I think if you just make a small circle off paper (change doc properties to be slightly larger than actual paper so the machine will go there) before each “block” you can accomplish the same result 010

chris bly @chrisxbly.bsky.social · 08/03/2025Genuary 20: generative architecture. This one is a 3D variation on my tectonic program. Similar to my “microterraces” series, it utilizes WEBGL , and as a result shares the complication of converting a raster graphic into a vector graphic. #generativeart #architecture #art #plotterart 0170
