3. 1955 - 1959! What Is Generative Art?! Generative art refers to art that in whole or in part has been created with the use of an autonomous system. ! ! An autonomous system in this context is generally one that is non-human and can independently determine features of an artwork that would otherwise require decisions made directly by the artist. ! wikipedia.org!

8. Drawing Machines! “they relied upon the chance relationship in the arrangement of each machine's mechanical components, the slightest alteration to which, (for example, a loosened screw), could dramatically impinge on the final result. In the words of Henry, he let each machine "do its own thing" in accordance with its sui generis mechanical features, with often surprising and unpredictable results.”! Desmond Paul Henry!
