About

In this lecture we will draw curves using everything from paper to online tools.

Goals

  • Learn about algorithms
  • Learn about constraints
  • Design your own algorithm

Sol Lewitt

Sol Lewitt's Walldrawing from the Do It Exhibition (2001):

A black not straight line is drawn at approximately the center of the wall horizontally from side to side.
Alternate red, yellow and blue lines are drawn above and below the black line to the top and bottom of the wall
