Creative Discovery using QD Search
Jon McCormack, Camilo Cruz Gambardella, Stephen James Krol
In creative design, where aesthetics play a crucial role in determining the quality of outcomes, there are often multiple worthwhile possibilities, rather than a single ``best'' de…
Is Writing Prompts Really Making Art?
Jon McCormack, Camilo Cruz Gambardella, Nina Rajcic +3
In recent years Generative Machine Learning systems have advanced significantly. A current wave of generative systems use text prompts to create complex imagery, video, even 3D dat…
Explainable Computational Creativity
Maria Teresa Llano, Mark d'Inverno, Matthew Yee-King +4
Human collaboration with systems within the Computational Creativity (CC) field is often restricted to shallow interactions, where the creative processes, of systems and humans ali…
Quality-diversity for aesthetic evolution
Jon McCormack, Camilo Cruz Gambardella
Many creative generative design spaces contain multiple regions with individuals of high aesthetic value. Yet traditional evolutionary computing methods typically focus on optimisa…
Complexity and Aesthetics in Generative and Evolutionary Art
Jon McCormack, Camilo Cruz Gambardella
In this paper we examine the concept of complexity as it applies to generative and evolutionary art and design. Complexity has many different, discipline specific definitions, such…
Growing and Evolving 3D Prints
Jon McCormack, Camilo Cruz Gambardella
Design - especially of physical objects - can be understood as creative acts solving practical problems. In this paper we describe a biologically-inspired developmental model as th…
