Infinite Worlds from Finite Tile Sets: A "Quantum" Approach to Generative Art
summary
Presents a simple algorithm to generate tile-based maps and images (emoji and 8-bit styles) using a finite set of tiles, explains what algorithmic criteria determine whether tiling can be completed, and shows a quantum-inspired interpretation of the problem by applying ideas from quantum mechanics to the generative process.
