Generative Art

Generative art is the practice of creating artwork using code. The examples shown below are made with either R, D3.js, or Python. When the programming language of choice is R, it’s often termed Rtistry or aRt. More examples of my generative art in R and Python can be found at nrennie.rbind.io/art-gallery, and in D3.js at nrennie.rbind.io/drawing-with-d3.
