I discovered this site today: “The Art of Motion Control”

http://www.taomc.com/home.htm

and though it might provide some inspiration....

In particular, I love the sand plotters:

http://www.taomc.com/art_machines/sisyphus.htm

and the stepper motor egg plotter:

http://www.taomc.com/studio_machines/egg_plotter.htm

(which he helps kids to build on their own in a 30 hour course he has given: http://www.taomc.com/bits2bots/index.htm )

But flip through the rest of the site.... really cools stuff there. Even the old stand-by of an etch-a-sketch driven by steppers...

(...) I wanted to do an "art" rtlToronto competition many years ago, but no one except Iain and I were interested. One of the ideas was to lay out large swaths of paper on a table and make mobile plotters. Calum (19 years ago, 27-Jan-06, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto, FTX)
