Programmed imagery: a new starting point and an old obstacle to creativity

Abstract

The paper focuses on the concept of alternative methodology in using PCs for imagination development. Creativity in such a case has been enriched by the option to think potentially in alternatives, which can be used when searching for concrete formulation of the original idea to use all their inner dynamics.

Being the efficient tool it recommends using programming language Processing, but not exclusively. In the beginning of the study I mention specifics of concretist and constructivist creation, which stresses also research of form alternatives.

This positively meets the PC technology development, which can be used for goal-directed control of adequate "poetics". Actual art demonstrations of this access could be found in generative art.

It is also possible to take the elementary classification of basic approaches.
