With having very limited exposure to plotters, I was not sure what to expect to see while browsing #PlotterTwitter. However, I was still very surprised at the variety of kinds of pieces people were making, with as many abstract pieces as there were realistic as well as the different shapes, lengths, and weights of the strokes used. I also liked to see that people were taking what their plotters made and adding their own traditional work on top (or plotting on top of their work) because it reminded me of the topic of authorship of the works. One piece that I liked in particular was the piece below by Sean Puckett (@PhotoPuck on Twitter) because of how smooth the lines were. It was very easy to let my eyes naturally follow each curve, and each curve led to an eye-like shape that along with the curves made the piece feel very organic and alive. The organicness of the piece contrasted with the fact that it was created by a machine was also very intriguing.
