Generative art refers to art that in whole or in part has been created with the use of an autonomous system. An autonomous system in this context is generally one that is non-human and can independently determine features of an artwork that would otherwise require decisions made directly by the artist. In some cases the human creator may claim that the generative system represents their own artistic idea,and in others that the system takes on the role of the creator.

Gaetana "Gae" Aulenti was an Italian architect and designer who was active in furniture design,graphic design,stage design,lighting design,exhibition and interior design. She was known for her contributions to the design of important museums such as the Musée d'Orsay in Paris,the Contemporary Art Gallery at the Centre Pompidou in Paris,the restoration of Palazzo Grassi in Venice,and the Asian Art Museum of San Francisco. Aulenti was one of only a few women architects and designers who gained notoriety in their own right during the post-war period in Italy,where Italian designers sought to make meaningful connections to production principles,and influenced culture far beyond Italy. This avant-garde design movement blossomed into an entirely new type of architecture and design,one full of imaginary utopias leaving standardization to the past.

Digital morphogenesis is a type of generative art in which complex shape development,or morphogenesis,is enabled by computation. This concept is applicable in many areas of design,art,architecture,and modeling. The concept was originally developed in the field of biology,later in geology,geomorphology,and architecture.
Generative design is an iterative design process that involves a program that will generate a certain number of outputs that meet certain constraints,and a designer that will fine tune the feasible region by selecting specific output or changing input values,ranges and distribution. The designer doesn't need to be a human,it can be a test program in a testing environment or an artificial intelligence,for example a generative adversarial network. The designer learns to refine the program with each iteration as their design goals become better defined over time.
