Recode Rethink

A collection of classic generative artworks that were recoded and reimagined. Recode your favourite artworks or make your own version of them, and share it here!

The goal of this project is to delve deep into the history of generative art and learn a thing or two in the process.

Use the #RecodeRethink hashtag if you are also sharing it on X (Twitter) or Instagram.

A few things to clear up:

  • The original art work doesn't need to be a generative one, you are free to select anything you like. Preferably abstract.
  • Please remember to name the original artwork and the artist either in the code comments or in the description.
  • I know that the sketches need an approval to be included in the curation, but that is simply to avoid potential irrelevant submissions. Please do not feel discouraged because of this, I will approve anything as long as it is relevant to the theme of this curation.

    Most importantly, remember to have fun!

    Important Note: Recode Rethink has many inspiration, one of which is the infamous ReCode Project
    Important Note 2: Recoding is one thing, stealing is another. Stolen works are not gonna be tolerated, neither will be forks with little or no modifications and straight up AI generated code without any artistic value (using them as tools is fine, of course). If it is either of these three, I will remove all of your works from the curation and personally report your account. This is not a joke.
