2022 Artist residency at Soaring Gardens with Andrea Keefe. Part of the Ora Lehrman Charitable Trust.
We were making drawing machines using materials at hand. Very different that CAD and CNC approach.
Created a harmongraph out of available materials on hand. Pendulums used broom sticks, water bottles, a bench vice, and clothespins.
Decay of oscillations create lovely decreasing shapes. Different initial conditions result in different patterns and colored pens highlight differences.
Random movements are the result of breezes blowing the pie plate UFO around the recorded on paper using different colored pens.
Wind, string, paper plates, pine needles, and red paint assembled to create a drawing machine.
Unconstrained X-Y table attached to a bicycle allow random movements to mark paper.
Drawings from the bicycle from three different recording implements.
