Generative art, a technique where the artist creates print or onscreen images by using computer algorithms, finds the artistic intersection of programming, computer graphics, and individual expression. The book includes a tutorial on Processing, an open source programming language and environment for people who want to create images, animations, and interactions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Book\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eGenerative Art\u003c\/i\u003e presents both the techniques and the beauty of algorithmic art. In it, you'll find dozens of high-quality examples of generative art, along with the specific steps the author followed to create each unique piece using the Processing programming language. The book includes concise tutorials for each of the technical components required to create the book's images, and it offers countless suggestions for how you can combine and reuse the various techniques to create your own works.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePurchase of the print book comes with an offer of a free PDF, ePub, and Kindle eBook from Manning.
