Project Write-Up

Title: Generative Art (making art that is mainly driven by a computer program; using programming to generate artwork that is algorithmically defined and created.)

Team members: Alex Tsai and Iris Nayki

General Category: Computational Creativity

Specifics: Each time the program is run, a new piece of artwork is displayed.

Tools/Languages: Processing

Deliverables: To create art using already entered images.
