wow, nice i always like to combine analog techniques to generating techniques, e.g. like the feedback effekt of video recording, i wonder how shapes would change if different circles radii where used ... ;) anyone interested in reprogramming `?

Imagine what this will do, when finished:

This seems to work in a was similar to a harmonograph. I assume changing the proportion between radii would corrospond in some way to changin the length of the pendulums.

WOW, that wooden computer is crazy. It would take a long time to compute a fractal wouldn't it? I'm not used to abstracting how a computer works to gears / wood, ha ha.
