I find it to be a very interesting concept. To summarise their conversation: traditionally, artists have developed works by pre-defining the end result e.g. to draw a flower you already have some idea of what flower you wish to draw, its colour, the emotions you wish to express or evoke from the audience, etc; works produced by a generative system is unlike any of the traditional methods - its methodology is related to planting a seed with a set of few simple rules that spawns the growth of others e.g. you provide the system a notion of a flower and rules to dictate how they are to be drawn/formed which the system then randomly generates. What really grabs my attention is (as they say) its potential to generate unique viewing experiences. If the video here or concept interests you have a look at Brian Eno’s 77 Million Paintings at http://www.77millionpaintings.com/ (0 votes, average: 0 out of 5)  Loading ...   « Previous Story | [...] [...] At http://createdigitalmusic.com/2007/06/15/brian-eno-with-wright-on-spore-and-generative-systems-sound-and-paintings/ you will find a You Tube video of Brian Eno and Will Wright talking about generative systems.
