While at the tail-end of a design I had spent the previous month working on, I woke one morning with another idea. worn limestone headlands is what came out of it. The code is a rewritten and optimized mix of shell-tethered vesper and pale relinquent, programmed onto a circuit board I had from the days of those projects. It consists of two analog and three digital voices, with ten loosely placed high-current LEDs sandwiched between two sheets of semi-translucent acrylic glass, randomly following the entries of each voice. The sculpture was initially intended to be wall-mounted, but later morphed into a freestanding piece. It still retains its 4.3 mm holes on each corner for wall-mounting, though.
