Questions tagged [generative-art]

Artwork created with the use of an autonomous system. An autonomous system independently determines features of an artwork that would otherwise require decisions made directly by the artist.

Generative art refers to art that in whole or in part has been created with the use of an autonomous system. An autonomous system in this context is generally one that is non-human and can independently determine features of an artwork that would otherwise require decisions made directly by the artist. In some cases the human creator may claim that the generative system represents their own artistic idea, and in others that the system takes on the role of the creator. There are various types of generative art - music, visual art, software art, architecture, literature, etc.

What is the intent of using 4D OpenSimplex Noise instead of 2D Perlin Noise to create a looping noise?

While I was learning about ways to create a looping generative art GIF, I encountered two different ways of making noise loops. Etienne Jacob's example code in his tutorial uses 4D OpenSimplex Noise as follows. (float)noise.eval(scl * x, scl * y, R…
