DRAWING MACHINES

The drawings above were produced by a drawing machine (a great RISD architecture genre)
The drawing machine consists of four parts:
1.) The launch pad is a level surface five inches above the floor. A 4 - 1/8 inch square is cut in the center, into which is seated the…
2.) The transport assembly consisting of a rubber stopper with a styrene tube piercing vertically through the center. The tube is attached to a length of vinyl tubing which leads to…
3.) A bicycle pump provides the pneumatic pressure required to launch the…
4.) Rocket which is loaded with an amount of charcoal powder.
The charcoal particulate spew from the launch of the pneumatic rocket is registered on the paper.

This machine is from Fernando Orellana’s website. It’s made of ‘a three tiered mobile sculpture that is driven by the vibration of a motor. This vibration is controlled in two ways. First by the machines programming, essentially a set of instructions on how to draw. Secondly by monitoring one or two microphones, giving it the ability to “listen” to its environment. When it hears something loud enough it uses that information directly to create marks’
This one has been made by David Shigler movement of the stylus is controlled by the chirps of a pair of zebra finches in the cage in the middle
