Appreciation towards Echo Yang for providing the following description:

台湾Echo Yang的毕业设计，利用陈旧的机器（古老的闹钟，随身听，机械玩具，吸尘器等等）作为绘画的工具，创建出原理看似简单却又非常迷人的绘画。完完全全击败了很多利用数字化工具和算法生成的图像。十分有趣。观看他的网站，中国大部分地区的同胞们需要翻墙。值得一翻。

The current popularity of generative design processes in which designers use algorithms to create a variety of different outcomes, instead of focussing on one, definitive result is closely linked to the use of digital design tools. This development has changed our perception of design as the creation of the single author. What could happen when the approach fostered by digital generative designers would be applied to an analogue world? A world in which obsolete machines like hand-powered alarm clocks, walkman and mechanical toys take centre stage?

My experiments in this domain of obsolete machines reveal their internal algorithms. Instead of creating these algorithms, I simply adopt and then visualize them.
