An Investigation into Aesthetic Preference using Generative Art
نویسنده
چکیده
1.0 INTRODUCTION The existence of a universal aesthetic preference has long been a topic of debate. Several years ago, thinking about generative art, I realised that it would be possible to evolve pictures according to the viewer’s personal preference. I also realised that the resulting pictures, if taken from a wide variety of people, might indicate some kind of universal aesthetic preference. This paper describes a ‘firstdraft’ implementation of that idea. Prior to that I present an overview of the study of aesthetics and of computer-generated art.

متن کاملTruth to Process – Evolutionary Art and the Aesthetics of Dynamism
After a great deal of initial promise and enthusiasm, evolutionary art seems to have hit a premature and disappointing plateau. This paper proposes a difficult but necessary program for the advancement of evolutionary art. First two significant problems are discussed. The first is the problem of creating aesthetic fitness functions that would allow evolutionary art systems to execute unattended...
متن کاملWhat is generative art?
There are various forms of what’s sometimes called generative art, or computer art. This paper distinguishes the major categories, and asks whether the appropriate aesthetic criteria--and the locus of creativity--are the same in each case.
متن کاملVisual Information Vases: Towards a Framework for Transmedia Creative Inspiration
Inspiration is an important aspect of human creativity and one that creative systems are only recently implementing. In this research, we describe and implement a transmedia creative inspiration model for generative art systems. Our implementation of this model is Visual Information Vases (VIV), an artificially intelligent ceramicist that creates 3D-printable vases using inspiration from a user...
