Machine

Physical Art-Machines or plotters are usually mechanical contraptions that repeatedly draw a pattern on a paper or canvas. I tried making something with that in mind. The circles in the picture were supposed to be drag/drop buttons to modify the pattern but I ended up not going with that, because it obscured the picture a bit and wasn't precise nor expandable.

Plotter

Draw either carefully planned patterns or let RNG take the wheel by spamming the + button. The most proud I am of the easy way to add/remove Pens and how similar it would feel to a real Plotter. Theres no stopping (only resetting) the machine, and once a pen is in there, it will start drawing immediately. Theres some potential for improvement here and more options which I didn't have time for. Maybe this creation has productive value for making backgrounds that looks more "drawn" rather than "generated".
If you see a canvas you like you can download a picture of it by pressing the button.
