The author gave Claude Code access to a pen plotter by acting as the intermediary: Claude generated SVG files, the author plotted them, then photographed the results and pasted the images back into the Claude session for feedback. After seeing its first physical output, Claude requested the opportunity to refine its drawing, producing a piece it described as "a single process unfolding outward, dense at the center and sparse at the edges, trailing off into silence."
