About

Inconvergent is a generative art project by Anders Hoff. The project explores the interesting—and complex—behaviour you can get from systems consisting of simple rules. The project also explores how to use algorithms to create aesthetic compositions, structures and textures.

Inspiration for the project ranges from natural phenomena, geometry and mathematics, to architecture and writing systems.

Writing & Work

Some writing about generative art and related programming experiments. I recommend starting with On Generative Algorithms.
