summary
This is a reflective paper indicating key points in the author’s involvement in generative design. Selected work is summarised in a series of snapshots of key developments. More recent evolutionary work is explained more fully including the "Groningen Experiment" which applied generative ideas to an interactive city planning model for Groningen that enabled citizen interaction with a generative model. The project has now been relocated in the School of Design, the Hong Kong Polytechnic University where the work is being expanded into the realm of industrial design and graphics.
