A subset of lines from the cube is selected and placed in a randomly sized and positioned matrix. A number of such matrices are chosen for each drawing. In the overlapping areas of the matrices the elements add up and common lines increase their width. Each drawing in the series builds on the previous one using the same set of rules. The algorithm finishes when a complete cube appears.
