Why Love Generative Art?
Generative art overlays the history of computers and is influenced by the flows of art movements. It is art that uses programming and degrees of randomness -- or to say spontaneity and discoverability -- to explore communication and creative outcomes.
Generative art has a living community of participants and resources. As mentioned by Jason Bailey in the above article, there are communities
exploring technology and communication at
MIT. There is a software platform called
Processing for learning how to code within the context of the visual arts. There are algorithm frameworks, such as
GANs (generative adversarial networks) based on the concept of neural networks to do such things as create samples of images to help visualize new designs and more. There are art and technology books such as the "
The Laws of Simplicity" and you can even
research the history of the first computer art contests.
Here are a few pieces of generative art collected from the article above:
