My reconstruction, built with Python in DrawBot. Panton’s original followed a constant order of scale and position; the code I wrote recursively randomizes the scale and parity (white over black or black over white).
I can also adjust my code to add further layers of scale.

No way to get out of Ames during the peaks of the pandemic, so I brought the cities I wanted to visit to me. The Python code I wrote in @drawbotapp draw outlines of buildings with randomly-chosen dimensions of walls and numbers of floors, profiles of roofs, positions and shapes/sizes of doors and windows.
