I love the early generative artists:

- Frieder Nake

- Vera Molnar

- Manfred Mohr

More recently people like Casey Reas, who developed the language Processing, Jared Tarbell (https://complexification.net), and Anders Hoff (https://inconvergent.net) are the people I'd look at. Hoff works in Lisp if that's your thing.

For a place to look at the history of generative art, the best resource is still http://dada.compart-bremen.de/




Do you know about Peter Struycken, who made many art works, painting, carpets, light shows, and 3D animations with the help of computers? Even his painting of the last decade where made using computer programs to find pleasant looking random patterns for placing coloured squares. See www.pstruycken.nl for more information.
