ContextFree + GrammarEvolver
Using the square shapes in Context Free, I revisited the quilt-like patterning but with a twist. The rudimentary shape of the square is run through the recursion sequence, becoming fractal-like in it's placement & sizing.
From the Romare Bearden collages, a multitude of colors are used. In the context-free code, a Hue variable is inserted so that each recursion of the square may change color. This results in a number of colors within each variation, rather than only one color per.
Now that the constraints are set to 'squares only, colors changing within', the Grammar Evolver of 'Processing' app provides the various random possibilities:
From each choice, a new set of evolved variations based upon the 'fittest' is passed on into the next generation. Eventually, a final version is evolved into that which has the traits most likely to result in a nice design for the Romare Bearden park:
