One of the creators here! Always happy to be mentioned and glad to answer any questions.A true love of mine, and something I'm loving see slowly grow and appear in our tech and programming community is interactive tutorials and blogs, which personally I feel teach and inspire creativity in a way like no others. This site is built with a library I called tutorial markdown [1], and the whole blog is also open source [2], and has a little indie podcast too [3]I really want to see this type of experience grow, so yeah, if anyone is working on similar things I'd love for them to share it here (or with me otherwise). Here [4] is a great blog post by John Otander showing off some great interactive blog posts on the web, all of which are very HN worthy in my opinion.[1] <a href="https://github.com/tholman/tutorial-markdown" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/tholman/tutorial-markdown</a>[2] <a href="https://github.com/tholman/generative-artistry" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/tholman/generative-artistry</a>[3] <a href="https://generativeartistry.com/episodes/" rel="nofollow">https://generativeartistry.com/episodes/</a>[4] <a href="https://johno.com/year-of-the-interactive-blog-post/" rel="nofollow">https://johno.com/year-of-the-interactive-blog-post/</a>

Along these lines, I work in geophysics/AI right now and trained a GAN on some seismic data, which people usually visualize with ridgeline/joy plots (literally just realized people call them joyplots because of the joy division cover...). It ended up looking pretty cool: <a href="https://brantondemoss.com/seismicdream" rel="nofollow">https://brantondemoss.com/seismicdream</a>

Does anyone know of generative art for gothic style [drop caps]? I thought it would be neat to generate the curves from a letter instead of relying on a font. I know Gwern.net uses some neat tricks to load a subset of the drop-caps fonts.[drop caps]: <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Initial" rel="nofollow">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Initial</a>[gwern]: <a href="https://www.gwern.net/About#implementation-details" rel="nofollow">https://www.gwern.net/About#implementation-details</a>

I am so confused / mixed on generative art. I've made a bunch. I often enjoy looking at it. I have friends that make a living from it. But I waffle on whether it's good/bad/art/not-art.I've been told by commenters on HN that my generative art is not art if it was created without intent to express some truth about the world or some such criteria. Not sure I agree.On the other hand it used to be a rite of passage to make a "draw random lines in random colors" program in like the first few days of learning to code and technically that is generative art.My friend who makes a living on generative art for installations does lots of flowing cubes and I'm super happy for him and always say positive things. But, in my head sometimes I'm like "seriously, all you did there is write a random line generator" because having made similar pieces I know effort wise it's more like a doodle then a project. In other words most of my generative art took less than an hour to make. I can turn my generative art to make images similar to ones he gets paid for in few minutes. So, sometimes it's hard not to see certain generative art as low effort? I'm not sure how to describe my feeling here.If some one showed you their program that had 2 numeric fields and an add button and you set the 2 fields, clicked add and the sum of the 2 fields is displayed (in other words the 2nd or 3rd program you ever wrote, <a href="https://jsfiddle.net/greggman/hypv0ugo/" rel="nofollow">https://jsfiddle.net/greggman/hypv0ugo/</a>). You'd be happy for them they are making progress on learning to program but if they posted that as "Show HN" you'd likely not give them much praise.That's the type of thing I often feel about some percent of generative art and I don't know how to stop feeling that any more then I wouldn't feel like "why are you showing this?" about the adding 2 numbers example.

There is a difference between people writing programs to generate art and (classically trained) artist who use programs to investigate art. I guess there are more examples of the first and fewer of the latter. One Dutch artist who in 1969 started using programs (at first with the help of others) to generate art is Peter Struycken. <a href="https://www.pstruycken.nl/index.html#En" rel="nofollow">https://www.pstruycken.nl/index.html#En</a>

I don't know, I looked at the one with packed circles, and the algorithm was silly: A loop that grow radius by one and check for collision each time, instead of directly setting the radius to the proper value.Edit: This is what I mean: <a href="https://pastebin.com/r0n19jZa" rel="nofollow">https://pastebin.com/r0n19jZa</a> (Well, except that I inlined functions, and that may be considered bad style.)

Nicely done. Question, what type of generative art could one create (as a newbie) if they wanted to embed something personal into the nucleus of it? Say for example birth dates of everyone in their family...

Does the demoscene count?Especially in sizecoding and shaders, if you want any kind of detail, you need procedural generation. Common techniques include fractals and Perlin noise, but there are many others, in 2D and in 3D.

Somewhere around 1980 I wrote a Mondrian picture generator for the VIC-20. It was pretty good as I recall. I was going to submit it to a magazine, but never did. I wonder what happened to that cassette?

Love this. Every few years I feel I want to get deeper into it, but ... never get enough time commitment behind it.Recently been wondering if Mathematica would be a good way to do this.
