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.

What can a prototype made of drawings never answer?
Writing — read the piece
- Meant to show
- Someone pressing the cushion to find out whether the chair holds, which is the question no drawing of a chair can answer.
- Asked for
- A chair propped on a chair seat while a woman presses the cushion with one hand
- Drawn with (analogous)

Why these three
Two neighbors reading as one family, and a third opposite them to argue with it.
- SeedSHA-256 of
what-can-a-prototype-made-of-drawings-never-answer, which is the same every time and different for every piece. - Base hueThe first two bytes as a fraction of 65,535, times 360 = 289°.
- GeometryThe third byte modulo 4 picks analogous, which adds 0°, 35°, 190°.
- WobbleThree more bytes shift each by up to ±12° — −3.1°, −8.3°, −2.6° — so two pieces that draw the same geometry are still not the same shape on the wheel.

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.
