And they're off! #ptpx postcards hit the post office today. A bit later than I wanted but nowhere near as bad as previous years. They are going naked, no envelope, so the postal service can add that last touch of randomness. #plotterart #penplotter

Postcards on a green desk surface. The design is an abstract curved shape of linked red and black circles on a light, distressed blue grid, on white paper. Four can be seen in their entirety and there is a stack of additional ones at the top of the picture.

On the blue is a piece called tracing the line by Hubertus of www.fleurcerebrale.com. On the back it explains "with a shaking hand over time: project 'getting older'". Merci Hubertus, je l'aime beaucoup, et ça nous arrive à tous. #ptpx #plotterart #penplotter

A postcard, drawn by a pen plotter, with gold horizontal lines on blue paper. The lines progressively become more shaky going from top to bottom.

On the white paper we have an untitled piece from Mike @artplots The picture doesn't capture it well, but this ink is really funky, I really like it. Many thanks! #ptpx #plotterart #penplotter

A postcard, drawn by a plotter, of flower like shapes with lines projecting out from central point. The ink is a silvery gray.

Wooo! A couple more #ptpx postcards have come in over the last week or so. Time for another mini thread. 🧵 #plotterart #penplotter

Belated Christmas gift, a signed poster from an exhibit in Toledo. I love this! Need to get it framed and up in the studio. #art #inspiration #poster

A poster titled "RULES FOR ART & TECHNOLOGY," featuring a series of guidelines related to the use of technology in art. Key phrases include "No tech demos," and "When the tech is no longer novel, will the work still hold up?"

I'm a bit late. I hope the wait was worth it ^_^

#ptpx plots leaving today!

A photo of my desk with 10 long postcards, plotted with gold on black. One of them is flipped, revealing the back side featuring silver text describing what the image is about.
Also on the table a pen plotter, 4 received postcards and the left side of my split keyboard.

A close up of two postcards on black paper, one front side and one back side.

The back side reads:
t! last year I participated in
ella Peste" in Milan, Italy, with an
stallation. People left voice recordings
to the festival topics "power" and
oftware converted them to abstract
ns like these.

The front side features two abstract designs that may resemble an abstract city map and the text:

@twilliability @humulus I also have trouble deciding this. For some pieces the minor defacing adds richness and character, for others, it sullies something pure.

@humulus You aren't the only straggler! I'm gonna get there before the end of the month though, I swear.

#ptpx postcards that have arrived in my mailbox. Half way done? I'm glad I'm not the only straggler.

Seven pen plotted postcards in a collage.

A postcard from @anyalitica - it’s really silver so it shows up as white. Really really neat. Happy new year #penplotter #ptpx

I dropped a nice stack of #postcards off at the post office today #ptpx

A pile of postcards. They have a pattern of block striped tubes on them.

@fractalkitty Thank you. In the end I think it came out great on this paper.

Last one for this thread but maybe first sent out. By BigDiceDave (not on mastodon I think). Untitled piece - but I especially like the snowman. This one took a while to arrive - it had a small adventure being delivered to my neighbour first 😅. #plotterart #penplotter #ptpx

A postcard, with blue green and black ink on white paper, drawn by a pen plotter. The design resembles a map made of irregular cells, in the centre wavy horizontal lines suggest a lake. Other cells contain houses, mountains, trees and one snowman

I'm very excited to receive one of these multicolored truchet drawings from @paulrickards. I've been watching these grow ever more sophisticated over time. #plotterart #penplotter #ptpx

A plotter art postcard, on white paper. The overall design is of an arrowhead pointing left. The arrowhead shape is filled with wavy, curly lines in a Truchet pattern. The lines are multicolored.

This one is from a series "Ruptures" by @fractalkitty . Love this crisp linework and the paper! #plotterart #penplotter #ptpx

A plotter art postcard, on tan paper. The postcard is filled with a rectangular frame in thin black line. The rectangle is triangulated in such a way that a central horizontal curved region is very densely triangulated and the triangles become larger and more elongated towards the top and bottom.

This one, from @tca is best understood when seen as number 6 in the series https://genart.social/@tca/115838795881383432 I am excited to be one of the lucky 12! #plotterart #penplotter #ptpx

A postcard, on white paper, with an area going roughly from the bottom left to top right filled in with a very irregular series of bright red lines. It is difficult to recognize the shape as a person, but the feet can be perceived at the lower left end. In the lower right, the number 6 is scribbled in, very densely, also in bright red linework.

Here is a low-poly rendering of a 1650's pencil by glowmuffin (sorry, no social media info) This is based on a 3D model of said pencil found in a medieval wreck, which is pretty cool. #plotterart #penplotter #ptpx Thanks glowmuffin.

A postcard, in black ink on white paper. A roughly triangulated drawing of a cylinder sitting horizontal on the page, tilted a little down to the right. There is a nub projecting up from the cylinder about 1/4 of the way from the right end. The right end is pointy. At the bottom, the numbers 53.054, 4.938 are visible in an irregular script.

It's #ptpx season! I love this time of year because each week brings fresh, delightful art in the mailbox. I've been a bit slack in posting about it, so here goes a 🧵 . #plotterart #penplotter

Thank you to @tpolecat for the beautiful plotter postcard! #plotterart

63 Broken Ladders

I mailed my postcards for this year's plotter postcard exchange. The design this year is "63 of 255 possible broken 8 rung ladders (in order) + 1 complete 8 rung ladder." I plotted the cards using an Axidraw SE/A3 with a Staedtler pigment liner for the black lines and a Sakura Pigma PN for the red.
