generative art
Generative art is the practice of delegating creativity to algorithms and AI, requiring minimal human intervention. It transforms the artist’s ego into code, leaving the audience to admire beauty without remembering who pressed the button. Complex formulas and technical glitches are sanctified as part of the artistic process. Success is measured by buzzwords like “metaverse” and “NFT”, inflating value in an endless cycle. Underlying it all is the ironic credo that a work is meaningful simply because a machine made it.
