Generative art refers to
art that in whole or in part has been created with the use of an
autonomous system. An autonomous system in this context is generally
one that is non-human and can independently determine
features of an artwork that would otherwise require decisions made
directly by the artist.
In some cases the human creator may
claim that the generative system represents their own artistic idea,
and in others that
the system takes on the role of the creator.
Generative art often refers to algorithmic art (algorithmically determined computer generated artwork) and synthetic media (general term for any algorithmically-generated media), but artists can also make it using systems of chemistry, biology, mechanics and robotics, smart materials, manual randomization, mathematics, data mapping, symmetry, tiling, and more.
