Turing Drawings uses randomly generated Turing machines to produce drawings on a canvas, as a form of generative art. The typical Turing machine formulation manipulates symbols on a one-dimensional tape. Turing Drawings uses machines that operate on a finite 2D grid, where each grid cell can contain one symbol which corresponds to a color value. This 2D grid is represented in the canvas shown at the left, which is dynamically updated as the Turing machine iterates.
