This piece is still in the sketch stage, and it's unclear whether it will evolve further.

In Japan, there is a holiday called Golden Week (GW) between late April and early May. This piece was created during the GW of 2024. Please consider the following note as a miscellaneous reflection born from heightened concentration during this period.

Initially, on a whim, I was sketching the circular and radiating lines from Marcel Duchamp's "The Bride Stripped Bare by Her Bachelors, Even" using p5js. I managed to reproduce the circular elements quite satisfactorily with algorithms and felt content with that.

On another occasion, as a completely separate endeavor, I was experimenting with a technique of creating forms using a grid. With plenty of time during the holiday, I had ample opportunity for exploration. However, at one point, this formation somehow adopted a configuration reminiscent of "The Bride Stripped Bare by Her Bachelors, Even". Intrigued, I decided to experiment by duplicating this formation, placing it both in the upper and lower halves. This resulted in the completion of this piece.

Through this process, I feel I gained insight into Duchamp as a Generative Artist. His Rotoreliefs, naturally, along with his series of "Nude Descending a Staircase" and his interest in chess, all began to appear as facets of Generative Art. However, I fear this sensation may slip away if not acted upon promptly. Hence, I hastened to release this piece as an artwork.

Duchampland and Turingland are in the same realm.
