Parameter:

  • is dedicated to the presentation and purchase of works that imaginatively use (re)generative methods, tools or ideations to entangle a variety of analogue and digital forms, processes and technologies, both traditional and emerging
  • explores the practices arising in the expanded field of generative arts and critically probes the material and cultural aspects of generative systems to counter the dominant techno-cultural currents and narratives surrounding generative art and technology
  • aims to support transformative practices and aesthetics that propose alternative and communal modes of artistic production, use of material resources and interfacing with the world as a (re)generative force
  • aims to support creative developments that may be difficult to absorb by recommender systems, commercial art markets or project-oriented production flows and instead emphasise care, accesibility, adaptability and resillience
