Virtual Harmonograph
A harmonograph is a mechanical device that employs pendulums to create a picture called a harmonogram.
I've replaced the mechanical device with a computer so you can create them at home without having to build one.
You can either play online or download and install it on your computer.
To play online click the button below.
To install download the zip file and extract it.
If you are using Windows just double-click harmonograph.jar or run the batch file harmonograph.bat.
If not just copy the java command from the batch file and run it at the command line.
Experiment with different settings in the Settings dialog or choose Random to create random harmonograms.
You can save and load harmonogram settings using the File menu.
Note that if you play it online you won't be able to save or load harmonogram settings because of security limitations.
You need Java Runtime Envinronment (JRE) version 1.2 or later to run this app.
