Automatonism: Generative Art Software

Automatonism is a generative art software that allows users to create abstract artworks automatically. It provides tools to define rules and patterns which the software then uses to generate unique images and animations.

What is Automatonism?

Automatonism is a generative art application designed to create abstract artworks automatically. It provides an intuitive interface and set of tools for artists to define rules, patterns, and behaviors which the software then interprets to output unique and unpredictable abstract images and animations.

At its core, Automatonism allows users to create "automatons" which are self-operating generative systems. The artist defines a starting state and sets of transformation rules, which the software then continuously applies to render dynamic, perpetually evolving artworks. Variables like rotation, scale, position, color, and more can all be automated based on mathematical formulas and procedural algorithms.

Unlike other generative art tools, Automatonism gives artists high-level creative control by allowing them to write scripts using a simple visual programming language. This makes it easier to define complex generative behaviors without needing to code. The app also has an intuitive UI for quickly setting up randomness, symmetry, repetition, recursion, and more to create endlessly unique art.

Automatonism includes customizable generators for scatter, mesh, fractal, cellular, transition, and particle systems. It also has post-processing and animation effects for bringing your generative designs to life. The software makes it possible for artists to create infinitely varying abstract motion graphics, prints, sculptures, VR art, and more using simple generative rulesets that encourage unexpected creative outcomes.
