The joy of creating art with code
summary
Examples use actual code and specific libraries: Processing, PyCario and Python scripts that draw vectors, use Perlin noise, implement pixel‑sorting and Bézier/curveVertex routines. A genetic algorithm evolves random shapes to approximate a target image and reaches a recognizable result after about 500 generations. Fractals, vector fields and procedural textures are built in code and demonstrably produce varied outputs each run; GAN experiments are shown as image‑mixing proofs of concept.
