Years ago. I dabbled in generative art. It's basically controllable chaos with math. I even wrote a small Forth-like language to control the generation. Some result: https://imgur.com/a/UjWLy7s
I started out in all the usual ways - inspired by Daniel Shiffman making generative art first using Processing, then p5.js, and now mostly I create art by writing shaders. Recently after being laid off from my job, I actually took my obsession further and released my very first mobile app - https://www.photogenesis.app - as a homage to generative art.
It's an app that applies various generative art effects/techniques to your photos, letting you turn your photos into art (not using AI). I'm really proud of it and if you've been in the generative art space for a while you'll instantly recognise many of the techniques I use (circle packing, line walkers, mosaic grid patterns, marching squares, voronoi tessellation, etc.) pretty much directly inspired by various Coding Train videos.
I love the generative art space and plan to spend a lot more time coming up doing things in this area (as long as I can afford it) :-)
I used to make generative art around 15 years ago as well, seems not much has changed in this aspect (note that this is not generative AI art). A few years later I remember using Processing.js after reading The Nature Of Code by Dan Shiffman as well, fun times. How time flies.
