Generative art refers to art that in whole or in part has been created with the use of an autonomous system.

This subreddit is for sharing and discussing anything generative (including music, design and natural phenomena), but especially art.

GENERATIVE ART

“What do we know of the world and the universe about us? Our means of receiving impressions are absurdly few, and our notions of surrounding objects infinitely narrow. We see things only as we are constructed to see them, and can gain no idea of their absolute nature. With five feeble senses we pretend to comprehend the boundlessly complex cosmos, yet other beings with a wider, stronger, or different range of senses might not only see very differently the things we see, but might see and study whole worlds of matter, energy, and life which lie close at hand yet can never be detected with the senses we have. I have always believed that such strange, inaccessible worlds exist at our very elbows, and now I believe I have found a way to break down the barriers.”

― H.P. Lovecraft

+|+ DEGENERATIVE FRIDAY +|+

Each Friday, /r/generative users are encouraged to discuss and post images of:

  • Failed experiments
  • Works in progress (especially stagnating ones!)
  • Unexpected, wacky results from your programs or experiments (happy accidents)

Degenerative Friday is meant to incite interesting discussion and encourage fellow generative artists to try new things. Degenerative art from previous Fridays can be viewed here.

Have any of you ever used Flashback by Synthesoft?

I just recently downloaded this software called Flashback, it's a software where you can make psychedelic visuals as well as audiovisuals. I can't find any information how to actually use the software. Have any of you ever used it?
