Cruz Godar Generative Art Gallery

Nice, each piece (as far as I checked) is interactive and you can fiddle with some parameters. Especially fun with the 3D fractals.

Feels like an entry drug to Mandelbulb3D.

I learnt programming, back in the 90's, all by myself, only to visualize platonic solids and other hybrid crystals in 3D. By using DOS graphics. I went on to generating fractals and bewildered by their beauty and resemblance to natural things.

Now, looking back, all this amazement around generated stuff was probably misplaced. It is like a tribal child on an uncontacted island accepting plastic toys from outsiders and getting amazed by the quality of the toys, without realizing that the toys would take over the island soon.

Speaking of toys - I used to make all my toys as a kid - chess pieces, chess board, playing cards, bow & arrows, wind-mills, cart-toys, bouncy balls... We didn't have any shops around. I miss the randomness, imperfection and freedom.
