Primewalk History

Inspiried by Ulam_spiral, Radic created primewalk in 2010.

The algorithm used to produce primewalk images is very simple. While counting from 1 to infinity, draw pixels north. Each time a prime number is encountered, change the draw direction clockwise.

Images are titled with a number indicating how many prime numbers it contains, and a number indicating how scaled the image is.

The center of each image is where drawing first occurs.
