i found an interesting program called Richard's Evolving Sprite Tool which randomly creates little graphics that are kind of like ink blots.

in a lot of games when textures are symmetrified i can see interesting things in the noise like alien faces.

i thought it might be interesting to use these little graphics as concepts or inspiration for full blown art projects.

i thought since you guys like doing concept tag that you might find this interesting. how about you guys get this program and use the randomize feature and then pick one of the graphics to create a proper artwork and the rest of us have to guess which one of the fractal graphics you based it on.

btw if any one of you know any similar programs i'd appreciate the info. btw there once was a program called El-fish which is really old that did this kind of thing but with 3d models. i wonder why this sort of technology was never developed further.
