TRY IT OUT!

Introduction

This project has been a collaborative work to recreate the algorythm used by Petros Vrellis in his recreation of El Greco's Jesus:

image of El Grecos "Jesus" remade

Showcase

Notes

May cause overheating. Reduce risk by lowering the number of nails used. First ~5 strings might take a couple of minutes to calculate. A small example sketch on how to calculate the distance between nails for 160 nails is here. The program sets the first nail (nail 0) at the rightmost point, as seen in the image above.
