The Process works explore geometric drawing systems that generate realtime images. Process 18 is a text that defines a process and a software interpretation of the text. It defines the form and behaviours of autonomous elements and the way those elements are visualised. Process 18 uses the line as a primary form. The process executes simultaneously on both sides; the elements (simple machines with behaviours) are exposed on the right
and the process surface generates on the left. The data created by Process 18 is used to produce a series of prints and objects. Object 1 and Object 2 are topographical reliefs that translate the gray values into threedimensional coordinates
