Lately, I've been feeling that DeviantArt lacks a gallery: one for Generative Art.Β 
Because lets face it, it is art, and we artists create it. And we have no room to share it here on DA, unfortunately.

Please fav, comment and share if you agree with me.

One could start a group ...

I've seen and shared a lot of Generative art here, but I agree that it should get an official category.

Yes! It's about time DA had a Computational Art/ Generative Art category. What about all the engineer/artists who feel left out? Code is just a different medium, art made from code is still art.

yes, why not? Deviant art has always been home of underdogs

That would be nice - although it would have serious overlap with fractals and 3D art (my Structure Synth stuff went there) Β

What is generative art?Β

tatasz In reply to comedyreliefmlp [2017-08-16 22:00:45 +0000 UTC]

Art generated by code, basically.
For example, things likeΒ Signs

OOOhhh, okay. Yeah, I think so long as you make something interesting, it doesn't matter how you made it, it's art. Couldn't you put it under digital art?Β

actually not sure - and well dunno, its mostly pretty specific and niche, and would be nice to have a gallery.

I agree

But I found an interesting site; you should look at this because it shows a way to create cool isometric art

www.cr31.co.uk/stagecast/wang/…

Also this!!!

that is totally awesome!!! Of course if we implement these into a fractal program then we can call them fractals right?

ThoughtWeaver [2017-08-16 19:07:51 +0000 UTC]

I'm inclined to agree! Generative art like structure synth isn't a fractal -- it's only put there because it has nowhere else to go.

lyc In reply to ThoughtWeaver [2017-08-17 03:03:55 +0000 UTC]

*isn't necessarily

it can surely be fractal, just as much as any other fractal rendering; not all images made with dedicated fractal programs are necessarily fractal either... not really news

Digital Art defies categorization. The Deviant Art category has both holes and overlap, generative art being one of the most gaping holes. Others are collage and data visualization. Overlaps include stereoscopy, animation, and space art (for example, an animated, 3-dimensional, stereoscopic, fractal depiction of a nebula could go in several different categories. And that doesn't even include things like digital poetry, fractal and generative art movies, and interactive art (which isn't really supported by DA).

But to your point: I agree that a gallery for generative, procedural, algorithmic art would be useful. Technically, fractal art would be a subcategory of that.

A similar gallery in the Resources & Stock Images category might be useful too, but that category has much worse problems...

yeah structure synth just slipped into fractal and murdocsnook.deviantart.com/ did a lot of it way back

yeah, because there is nowhere to post it actually. It just doesnt fit basically anywhere

For example, processing, structure synth and so on.
They don't really fit into fractal gallery, actually.
Processing animations are kinda meh at digital art / animations.
And so on.
