I remember seeing some discussion on Evolvotron, the generative pattern generator, here at one point. I thought I'd share a blog post I recently wrote about the principles behind it. [link]

If you keep at it long enough, you can generate some interesting images.

Interesting blog post, merrak.
I'm going to get Evolvotron and have a bit of fun!

It's strangely addictive

I just wish there was a way to save all 30 images, full size, at once.

Wow, lots of stuff in the context and settings menus.
Do you have any interesting saved functions?
Here's an initial quick one.

is there a windows exe for evolvotron?

I don't think Evolvotron is available for Windows.
In Gimp, Qbist is similar.
Filters | Render | Pattern | Qbist

thanks, Odinbc!
(very nice results in Qbist...)

I love the last one in Merrak's post.

I saved a few, but when I came back to them, they didn't seem as interesting as before.

I have a few more variations of that one; a flower-looking one, and a stronger sunbeam one.
