Common Trace is an interactive plotter drawing system that routes trackpad gesture input through an interference engine before sending G-code to a GRBL-based AX5 plotter. The system investigates authorship, memory, and human-machine mark-making through three behaviors: Ghost Replay, Drift, and Hesitation.

Solo Designer & Developer; concept, Python development (with AI assistance), interference engine design, G-code integration, publication design, and documentation
Generative Design, Creative Coding, Publication Design, Systems Design
My capstone Common Trace turns mark-making into a conversation between human intention and machine memory.
