This is Part IV in a series on building a framework for appreciating generative art. In Part I, “Demystifying Generative Art,” Peter Bauman (Monk Antony) builds the case for such a framework. In Part II, “Demystifying Generative Aesthetics,” Bauman examines generative outputs—the results of generative systems. In Part III, "Demystifying Generative Systems," he examines generative systems themselves. Now in Part IV, Bauman investigates another framework component, autonomy—control within generative systems. The essay includes Bauman’s discussions with Christiane Paul, Matt DesLauriers, Sougwen Chung and Zach Lieberman.
