This wiki is dedicated to gathering and presenting information about generative art.  Unlike some other wikis, the Generative Art Wiki is not open to public authoring or editing.  I will be writing much of the content and acting as editor for other invited contributors.  If you have a particular expertise in some aspect of generative art and would like to contribute to this effort, please contact me via email.

Generative art refers to any art practice where the artist uses a system that operates with some degree of autonomy, and contributes to or results in a completed work of art. Systems may include natural language instructions, biological or chemical processes, computer programs, machines, self-organizing materials, mathematical operations, and other procedural inventions.
