My thought was that Resch was able to create such a complex system from simple rules because he had spent weeks in a way studying the paper through interaction, and I guessed that my knowledge of Illustrator would give me a similar understanding. I began with the CMYK color settings of lines, creating a two more lines at the end of each end of a single line. The more left line would have a small decrease in magenta, while the right would have a decrease in yellow, resulting in the image below.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/astoryisnotatree.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/System-2-2.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-6318 size-large\" src=\"http:\/\/astoryisnotatree.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/System-2-2-1024x1024.png\" alt=\"System 2-2\" width=\"625\" height=\"625\" srcset=\"http:\/\/astoryisnotatree.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/System-2-2-1024x1024.png 1024w, http:\/\/astoryisnotatree.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/System-2-2-150x150.png 150w, http:\/\/astoryisnotatree.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/System-2-2-300x300.png 300w, http:\/\/astoryisnotatree.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/System-2-2-624x624.png 624w, http:\/\/astoryisnotatree.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/System-2-2.png 1800w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 625px) 100vw, 625px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The splitting of lines would end when the magenta or yellow value reached zero.
