I feel this is wrong. If I make random generative art I instantly lose copyright? Or how about Photoshop? Really I'm asking myself where is the lone drawn.

- comepradz 8y agoYou can though own the algorithm you used to generate the art, as in the case of Fractal Flame[0] created by Scott Draves. [0] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fractal_flame https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fractal_flame
- vsl 8y agoYou don’t “loose” copyright, you never had it in the first place. Copyright is (read the law!) a temporary monopoly granted for works meeting certain criteria, being creative is one of them. You’d hold copyright for the code you wrote to generate the “art”. If you download somebody else’s code (as this site uses Nvidia’s), you lack the creative element.
