Sound of wave – Sound visualization

This drawing was visualized with code using the sound of waves recorded at a beach, then plotted with a Pen plotter.

Visualize the sound of the sea with code and printed it out with a pen plotter(AxiDraw SE/A3). The writing instruments are mechanical pencils, and you can feel the texture and reflection of graphite.

I always recommend this book, whenever I am asked by a beginner, “How do you make your work?”. The book includes high-quality examples of generative art.
