Welcome to the NodeBox research site
NodeBox (http://nodebox.net) is developed as the core engine in a research project on design automation and Artificial Creativity involving 3 teachers at St-Lucas Art College, Antwerp, Belgium.

Nodebox
How does graphic design (and communication in general) work? Is it purely subjective, a matter of personal opinion, or are there rules to be revealed? If so, can these rules be programmed into an artificially creative algorithm that aids human designers in their search for the right design?

NodeBox is a node-based software application for generative design. It helps designers and everyone that uses it to automate boring productiong challenges, visualise large sets of data and manipulate the raw power of computer without using mechanical language of machines. NodeBox is developed by the Experimental Media Research Group, a cross-domain research group associated with the Sint Lucas School of arts of the Karel de Grote-Hogeschool (Antwerp, Belgium).

Jan 7, 2020 - NodeBox Visualizations. See more ideas about generative, data visualization, generative art. Throughout the years, art has developed many forms, from paintings to sculptures and abstract designs. The computer brought about even more ways, especially on a visual level. Apart from painting.
