Draws this one again — same subject and the same people, a new palette and a new angle on it, described afresh. It replaces the drawing on this page for everyone, until somebody draws another. Costs the site about eight cents, and a few seconds.

Learning to recognize exclusion
Writing — read the piece
- Meant to show
- Nobody, on purpose. The empty chair is the person the team did not think to invite, and noticing it is the skill the paper teaches.
- Asked for
- A team huddled at a whiteboard covered in sticky notes, one empty chair pulled slightly away from the table
- Drawn with (complementary)
#8750c5#8dcf72#893a69
Why these three
Two hues opposite each other, the strongest contrast available, with the third supporting the first.
- SeedSHA-256 of
learning-to-recognize-exclusion, which is the same every time and different for every piece. - Base hueThe first two bytes as a fraction of 65,535, times 360 = 276°.
- GeometryThe third byte modulo 4 picks complementary, which adds 0°, 180°, 40°.
- WobbleThree more bytes shift each by up to ±12° — −8.0°, +6.2°, +8.4° — so two pieces that draw the same geometry are still not the same shape on the wheel.
- Result
#8750c5268° at 60% saturation, 77% value#8dcf72102° at 45% saturation, 81% value#893a69325° at 58% saturation, 54% value
Saturation never drops below 72% and value never below 78%, which is what keeps a hue reading as the color it was chosen to be rather than as a dark. More on how these are made.
