"We have to find out who you are.", "I can get you on my demo team." are two abstract generative drawings. They are outputs of Licia He's original generative algorithm titled "Isometric Connection." This 2023 Python-based algorithm generates instructions for drawing robots. Pen plotters (Axidraw A1) physically rendered four selected outputs from this algorithm in 2023 using a drafting pen and ink.
