Notes

A concise field guide to computational aesthetics by Casey Reas (co-creator of Processing), Chandler McWilliams, and the Dutch design studio LUST (Princeton Architectural Press, Design Briefs series, 2010). Organizes generative/computational practice into Form, Repeat, Transform, and Simulate, illustrated with canonical works from Csuri, Molnar, Mohr, Nake, Noll, Schwartz, Sutherland, Sims, and dozens more -- its Designer/Artist/Architect index is effectively a who's-who of the field.
