Generative Art
01 September, 2023
Generative art is a creative practice using algorithms and computer code to produce unique and unpredictable visual artworks. It's a fascinating fusion of technology and artistry, where the artist's role is to design the rules and parameters that guide the algorithm's output rather than directly crafting each element by hand.
The history of generative art dates back to the mid-20th century when artists and mathematicians started experimenting with computer-generated visuals. Early pioneers like Frieder Nake and Georg Nees used simple computer programs to create intricate patterns and designs. In the 1960s and 70s, artists like Vera Molnár and Manfred Mohr continued to explore the potential of algorithms in art.
Today, artists from various backgrounds use coding languages like Processing, Python, or specialized software to craft intricate and thought-provoking generative artworks.
In my blog, I'll share how it's been my escape from life's chaos, a tool for focus in a multitasking world, and a way to slow down in our fast-paced reality.
