Method
Deterministic

A browser-based pen plotter draws one of four procedures from a five-digit seed. The same seed reconstructs the same strokes and can be shared in the URL.

    About this experiment

    Hypothesis

    A visible drawing process and reproducible seed can make deterministic generative software feel like a physical instrument.

    Tommy Ettinger’s Mulberry32

    Observation

    Each seed selects one of four hand-authored procedures and every parameter needed to reconstruct its strokes. The pen travels, draws, changes pens when the selected procedure uses a second ink, and reports its actual progress on an A3 sheet.

    Method

    Designed and implemented by Tranquility. The drawings use a seeded Mulberry32 generator and four hand-authored procedures; no AI model participates in generation.
