Python to Rust: Porting My Genetic Art Algorithm
One of the first posts on this blog showed how to implement a genetic algorithm in Python. Revisiting that project, I realized it is an ideal candidate to port to Rust: it is computationally heavy, and touches on performance, parallelism, and data structures. In short, a good excuse to finally...

Minimalist Art Using a Genetic Algorithm
While the genetic algorithm in the previous post worked very well, it didn’t quite produce the style of minimalist artwork I was trying to achieve. Furthermore, it didn’t allow the chromosomes to evolve using duplication and deletion of existing genes (which is very common in biology). So after mulling over...

Genetic Art Algorithm
Genetic algorithms are fun, they require a different way of thinking. Here I’ll guide you through my process of building an algorithm that evolves 150 random triangles into a famous piece of art. The work I picked to re-draw: Van Gogh’s The Starry Night. The original and the version the...
