Rosette Generator
The Rosette Generator is a custom-made circuit board which produces fascinating shapes on an oscilloscope. It is an analog design which utilizes the rare AD633 multiplier chip in a configuration that creates a complex trigonometric relationship between the signal outputs.
The Rosette Generator cues the mind to notice a unifying theme between the symmetries of nature, the principles of mathematics, and the behavior of electronics. What ubiquitous intelligence is responsible for these products of evolution and consciousness?
