Question for people that already do generative art: what library (framework) do you recommend? I know a little bit about GLSL but I know it is limiting in some cases
I was not aware of Genuary, but I have been a fan of Jamuary [0] so I took to using their prompts for some generative art the past few days. Rather than sticking to one or two of the prompts, I have been mixing together 3 at a time like "sequenced melody of a major+minor connected with white noise." I really enjoy the results.[1] [0] https://www.reddit.com/r/synthesizers/comments/rssia1/jamuar... [1] https://imgur.co…
How refreshing to see a mention of generative art that isn't followed by the mention of "NFTs". It's really spoiled one of my passions and I've had to mute a bunch of people i used to follow on Twitter. I'm not especially zealous against NFTs (more bored than I am repulsed) but it's just unspeakable boring for an entire field to turn into a sales pitch.

(But if you search for stochastic music you find almost nothing).
I always wanted to start with generative art and this seems like a perfect starting place. Question for people that already do generative art: what library (framework) do you recommend? I know a little bit about GLSL but I know it is limiting in some cases
For a code-based approach, I spent the weekend trying different permutations of Processing and settled on writing p5.js in VSCode. It's easy to set up, you can use vim bindings, and you can copy+paste your code into openprocessing.org if you want to share it (if it's interactive, for example).
Does anyone know any good resources to learn generative art? Would love to learn some algorithms and try mashing them together

I generally am not fond of NFTs myself, but want to give a counter point - while it's no fun to see artists you like posting a lot about NFTs, it's also great they can now get paid to do art. For established artists this means high purchase prices that (in the thousands, not something crazy) that make being a full time artist viable and acts as pay off for doing it for many years without much of a financial incentive…

I somehow doubt that NFTs provide a sustainable way of increasing the amount of money spent on art. If an artist couldn't make it by selling prints or collecting donations in the past, why would people now suddenly spent more money on that artist's art just because instead of a print you get an NFT?
I’m not entirely convinced it’s sustainable either, but I can absolutely see why right now some artists are able to make massively more from NFTs than they could from prints.
