The Beauty of Algorithmic Art is a book project that is composed of a portfolio of my algorithmic art. This was my first book project. I began work on the book in the spring of 2015. At the time I had decided to self-publish and so began the process of identifying a publisher. I wrote about my search for a self-plublishing vendor in Blurb vs Lulu to Publish an Art Book.
A number of events resulted in a reprioritization of my projects such that work on my algorithmic art book was placed on hold. This decision was made easier by the fact that at the time I wasn't satisfied with the results of my investigation into using either Blurb or Lulu as my print-on-demand publisher/distributor.
In October 2015 I restarted my search for a publisher. I decided to not do any more work on the book itself until I have identified a publisher since each has its own book layout requirements and/or software restrictions. I set myself the task of identifying a publisher by the end of November 2015. That obviously did not happen as other priorities took hold.

Given the amount of time that has passed since I started work on this book and the variety of algorithmic art I have created over the intervening years, I have decided that this book should be restarted from scratch. Given my other projects, I am unsure of what my schedule will be for moving forward with this book. To keep informed on this and other projects you can subscribe to my newsletter.
