A form of Robotic Art!?but not really. An Analog Curve-Drawing Machine! J.H. Vincent and C.W. Jude, "The Duplex Harmonograph" in the Philosophical Magazine, series 6, vol 29, no 172, April 1915; pp 490-514 in the issue of pp 433-624, with two plates. There is one large folding plate that accompanies the Vincent/Jude article that shows the great intricacy and beautiful geometric designs that this instrument produced. This is the monthly issue, extracted froma larger bound volume. GOOD condition. The instrument itself seems relatively simple compared to the figures it produces converting combined harmonic motions into curves drawn by a pen on paper. The instrument is described and the process explained. The harmonograph doesn't make its first appearance here as it appears in the mid-late 19th c., though the Vincent/Jude instrument seems to have been a great leap forward in capacity and instrument erudition. "A duplex harmonograph is an analog, pendulum-driven drawing machine invented in the 19th century (notably by J.H. Vincent and C.W. Jude?the paper offered here) designed to produce intricate geometric, abstract images known as Lissajous figures. It typically utilizes two pendulums to create complex, 3D-like, and often multi-colored, swirling patterns."--Wikipedia BTW no mention of this work or the harmonograph in general in Henderson's "The Fourth Dimension and Non-Euclidean Geometry in Modern Art"--I thought it might have made it as a mention as a mathematical experience that is also a work of art though not much recognized as the later, though not as non-E geometry. I'd think of it sort of like Jouffret's "Traite Elementaire de Geometrie a Quartre Dimensions et Introduction a la Geometrie a n-Dimensions" (1903)  and his "Melanges de Geometrie a Quatre Dimensions" (1906). Admittedly we're well into modernism and non-representational art by 1915 but still this seems worth a look-see.
