Painting with Outliners and Fillers
Marco Celesti, Mario Verdicchio · 2009
Ant-based artificial art has reached significant levels of visual appeal and aesthetics. Nevertheless, the artworks are still clearly recognizable as computer-generated, and present a diffused colouring effect common to most of the ant-based art. In this work we propose to introduce two different roles, namely outliner and filler, that ants or ant-like agents can play on a digital canvas, aiming at producing artworks that, although sketchy at this stage of our research, look promising in the pursue of generative art that resembles human-made drawings.
