⚖️ Concord

Right Click Save Edition

The Concord project was my first generative art project on fxhash. Enjoying the freedom of releasing what I wanted when I wanted and not having to worry so much about "mass appeal" allowed me to lean into the world of generative pen plotter art.

Combining my love for print and pen plotting, Concord lends itself to both, having since had prints and pen plots made of it.

The idea for Concord was a place of peace and tranquillity. The line represents structure, as though you were in the wilderness or on a strange planet and had found some bamboo-type material to construct a shelter. The circles and semi-circles are balanced, distant moons or suns view from the abode. The smaller dots take their positions in the negative space, placed where other things aren't.

Concord: "a harmonious state of things in general and of their properties (as of colours and sounds); congruity of parts with one another and with the whole."

Instructions

=======================================

Paper Sizes (ISO A), 1:1.414 ratio

Keypresses

'h' - toggle high resolution
's' - save PNG file
'1-6' - save A1 to A6 SVG files

Printing

The high resolution image outputs at 5,809 x 8,192 pixels.

Print 19.4" x 27.3" at 300dpi Print 49.2cm x 69.4cm at 300dpi

Add ?forceWidth=xxxx where xxxx is the pixels size you want. For example to print at 100cm high, the width would need to be 70.72cm. 70.72cm in inches is 27.84" at 300dpi = 8,352 pixels width. So using ?forceWidth=8352 and downloading will give you an PNG large enough to be safely printed at 1 meter height.
