I want to get into generative art but refuse to use Java. Options?

  P5.js (JavaScript) is a good starting point.

    PlotDevice for Python on MacOS is good. If you specifically want something in-browser then P5.js will do the job. But I'm not sure why someone would "refuse to use Java". You don't have to deal directly with Java to use Processing or Quil/Clojure.

  Anything capable of generating images? I've done generative graphics with Python and Julia. Don't overthink it.

  You can also write Processing sketches using their Python syntax[0], if that's your objection. Also as someone else has mentioned, openFrameworks is a great c++ alternative with an active community. [0] https://github.com/jdf/processing.py https://github.com/jdf/processing.py
