antirez wrote[0] about an early piece of computer generated art:
Schotter by Georg Nees[1]. But why on earth use a database?  So I sat
down and wrote a CHICKEN Scheme version[3]. This outputs an A3
formatted pdf, looking differently each run.

It requires CHICKEN 5 and a recent cairo egg...

Our friend from the shoestringfoundation[3] wrote a version in
postscript.
