Just got a Tektronix 2225.

I tried to achieve a Rutt-Etra look, but with ‘only’ Diver. I took this patch as example, but used Diver instead of the VC and camera. And I didn’t use Navigator and Shapechanger.

Patch

Diver H+V into the oscilloscope X and Y.

Make a pattern with Diver H+V, H-V, Clock VCO, Arch and Staircase. Use the pattern as Z input for the oscilloscope, but also feed it back into the Wave input on Diver.

Result

It’s pretty chaotic but there is a nice sense of depth. Not sure if this officially qualifies as the look but I think it’s a great result for this minimal setup

Looks great, excited to pick up a Diver soon and try the same!

Hey @mauiey, have you created more imagery with this setup since your original post?

I saw a link to this thread in a new post about the Vector Hack festival in October, they’re looking for works that include old displays. Maybe you’d be interested in submitting something.
