What is Genetic Art?

The Genetic Art application is a unique JavaScript-based tool that transforms input images into visually striking reproductions using primitive geometric shapes. By leveraging the power of genetic algorithms, the app systematically generates and optimizes a collection of lines, triangles, circles, and squares to mimic the original image. Users can upload any image and witness the dynamic evolution of the abstract representation, allowing them to explore the interplay between simplicity and complexity. Whether accessed online or self-hosted as an HTML/JavaScript web application, Genetic Art offers a captivating experience in the realm of generative and procedural art
