As interactive art becomes more sophisticated, new methods and techniques are needed to explore this blurred area. One discipline that has great potential in this area is Artificial Life. The objects, pictures and animations produced in this field are of great interest to people because of the associations with real life.
People have an intrinsic notion of what it means to be alive.
Using the power of natural processes, evolution and growth, the project here produces interesting art forms, slightly organic in shape and motion. The objects start their 'life' as small cubes and grow due to chemicals reacting and diffusing through their structure. The evolution of these forms is directed by a user who can breed and mutate them using aesthetic selection. This method also blurs the distinction between artist and critic. It is 'art by critisism'.
