Path Optimization is Overrated (2021)

In classic generative art style, the visual appeal of this piece came about as a bug.

Typically, the plotter's stroke order is optimized to reduce the arm travel distance and save time. However, in this piece, the stroke order was accidentally randomized, causing the gradual deposit of watercolor ink to be distributed randomly across the page, highlighting the wonderful and multi-layered interaction between the physical and the digital in this medium.
