Work continues on my exploration of Genetic Art and Genetic Algorithms. Essentially, I’ve created a random image generator which uses mostly mathematical functions to determine the color of a given pixel. The application uses a Postfix representation of a mathematical formula so the Infix expression “Sin(x)” becomes “x sin”. This makes it real easy to evaluate the expression using only a simple stack data structure.

The other benefit of the postfix is that I don’t need a tree structure or to walk such a structure to evaluate the expression.

Lastly, I’ve moved away from the black and white only images and have begun using a function per color channel thus am evaluating each pixel for Red, Green and Blue independantly. Below are just some of the Images the application generates along with their RGB mathematical functions. Click “read more” for the full gallery of images…
