Generative Machines with Matt DesLauriers

[@FcSteezey]

kick ass artist. really loved this talk and high level generative art exploration. hyped to see this field develop.

[@MichaelRuppe]

Really great to get a peek at the creative process. I loved the high-level walkthrough for "reflect" towards the end - That's favourite of mine!

[@MarinusMakesStuff]

Wow, one of the best lectures I've seen on this topic! I've built my own pen plotter and bound to finish the second one (full color with pen-switching) soon and am getting into programming more and more so this lecture really helped opening my view. Thanks a lot for sharing!

share on twitter please! that sounds awesome comment if you post anything man

[@rickruggles7735]

Excellent presentation, thank you for this video!

[@snacksy7754]

geerative art is awesome

[@vicentemanuelruizsotelo1373]

Awesome work! Thanks for sharing! You are great.

I really want to try using a pen plotter to do wireframe reference sketches for doodling over and see where i can go with that. i think it would be fun to mix some of these techniques with traditional drawing

[@noegogniat1548]

Great presentation! It really motivated me to continue to experiment with creative coding :)

[@PunmasterSTP]

I just came across your comment and was curious. How have your experiments with creative coding been going?

[@noegogniat1548]

@@PunmasterSTP Hej! Thank you for asking :) In the past year I’ve coded around 50 different projects both in Java (using Processing) and JavaScript (mostly to create generative websites). I’m currently using the knowledge I gathered to create a rather complex “information design” poster. I’ve also had the chance to develop some interactive vjing project for a few parties around Switzerland as well as an interactive artwork for a light festival near Zürich. In the future I would love to learn more languages and maybe try to create a fun little AI. While writing all that I realized that I’ve transformed into a nerd in the past year ^^ What about you?

This is so cool! Thanks for sharing the talk

[@musk4mars116]

Matt skills are really impressive. I was hoping he had a KZbin channel.

[@PunmasterSTP]

This was a really interesting talk!

9:36 lower left image is dope. Like this a lot. Scientific presentation of a biological landscape developed and drawn by a machine. Nature can by so naughty :)!

[@andreascerbai768]

I really appreciated when he explained the work progress of the Reflection Series. Altough I dont code, I was still able to kind of translate what he explained into Illustrator and Photoshop "language" which made it possible for me to recreate them!

[@electron7373]

Really interesting work.

[@LucasVogel]

Thanks for sharing this is great.

[@Love-Within]

great talk!

[@alvarobyrne]

very good audio, je je!

[@邹聪-q3e]

I like his work for several years.

[@ashishdandekar3354]

This reminds me of Sonnie from I-Robot drawing a picture of his dream... I found that sci-fi years ago when I saw the movie and now it's become reality, and this is just the tip of the iceberg!

[@Draaack]

This guy is rad.

[@efkastner]

So weird seeing names I know from totally different fields come up in this :)

[@bass_journey]

mindblowing.

[@JessicaUresti01]

This reminds me of flash coding that people were doing 20 years ago, but now it is just code.

This man is not an artist. Data-driven images are cool to look at, but they're emotionally empty and flaccid. They are boring and monotonous. There is nothing personal of the creator in them - Only data - So there is _nothing_ that can be gained by examining them. There is nothing to take out of them because there is nothing in them to begin with.

[@TW-mw3qk]

Agree to disagree

[@estranhokonsta]

"... There is nothing to take out of them because there is nothing in them to begin with... ". No need for data to get that. That applies to many so called human artists.

[@lishu9120]

When did the definition of an artist become so narrow? FYI, the image are not data driven they are algorithm driven. Have data is just a small part of the process, the core is the algorithm it presents the work's character. One more thing, this is not prompted art, code art more precise, don't be so ignorant.
