Resumo(s)
This study seeks to contribute to the understanding of procedural practices, aiming at the creative exploration of generative autonomy as a creative method and concept inherent to the computational medium. According to this idea, it addresses the principles that motivate the creation of software, analyzes concrete manifestations of its generative potential and proceeds to its practical exploration. The research begins by framing procedurality as a defining capacity of computational media in relation to previous media. In this sense, it discusses the notions of code and software, identifying its generative potential and addressing its exploration through the writing of processes or the definition of computational behaviors. The different understandings of processes are debated, from the point of view of their creation and experience, while emphasizing the processual and performative qualities of these media. Subsequently, the concept of generative autonomy is approached in order to analyze and describe concrete manifestations of this creative principle. To this end, we selected a set of aesthetic artifacts that use software as a creative medium and explore its generative potential as the main subject-matter of creation. Informed by the theoretical component, the analysis articulates different perspectives on these systems as aesthetic artifacts; it addresses their concepts and motivations and the way they are implemented at the level of their mechanics, as well as their experienceable results in terms of surface and dynamics. This analysis informs the practical component of the study which aims at the creative exploration of generative autonomy. We chose a context of presentation in accordance with the conceptual scope and experimental nature of the developed artifacts, which presente dynamic behavior, guided by processes, as performances that occur in real time. This study thus seeks to promote an understanding of the poetic possibilities and aesthetic qualities of computational media. It also seeks to encourage their creative exploration according to a critical, prospective and speculative stance on their modes of procedural expression.
