Pixels (genuary day 4)

Dithered noise fields. A couple of false starts today so only managed to implement this dithering algorithm[1], and applied it to continuous random noise fields. The pen plotter is really not suited for these algorithms designed to make photorealistic images look pleasing on screens that could only show black and white dots.

White gelly roll 08 pen on black paper, 200x200mm.
