This course proposes a deepened survey of current practices in generative arts and computational creativity with an emphasis on the formal paradigms and algorithms used for generation
Algorithmic Music Composition - A long tutorial (or short course) exploring the creation of music using algorithms.
YouTube channel featuring videos about demos and explanations to make art usin machine learning.
Bruno Imbrizi explores the use of code as part of the design process, where visual elements both inform and are informed by the program's output. Bruno is a creative coder with a passion for creating visuals through code.
Matt DesLauriers talks about his passion for generative art — searching for inspiration, exploring open tools and workflows, and finding his own path within the field. Learn about conceptual art, pen plotters, light installations, and how print artworks can be created with JavaScript and the web platform. Matt breaks down some of the algorithms and processes involved in his work, providing you with the building blocks to create your own generative art.
Michelle Duong is a creative professional specializing in the intersection of design and code. She explores generative algorithms and computational typography, creating visually compelling and innovative works. Based in Berlin, she leverages her skills to develop unique solutions and push the boundaries of digital art.
Chromie Squiggle is an instantly iconic generative artwork. Created by Erick Calderon, perhaps better known as SnowFro as the first project on Art Blocks, Chromie Squiggle combines generative mechanics, pop art aesthetics, and blockchain distribution to create lasting and compelling outputs, becoming a symbol for generative art more widely along the way.
Art Blocks is a platform for generative digital art. Artists create algorithms that generate unique artworks, and these artworks are minted as NFTs. It's a pioneering project in the NFT art space, known for its curated drops and innovative approach to digital art ownership.
Tim Rodenbröker discusses the exciting and largely unexplored territory of creative coding, exploring how code can be a powerful medium for artistic expression and innovation.
For Casey Reas, software is the most natural medium to work with. He uses code to express his thoughts—starting with a sketch, composing it in code, and witnessing the imagery that it ultimately creates. We visit his studio to see how he uses color to convey emotion and how his programming language Processing is closing the gap between software and object.
