Generative Dialogues III at OFFF Barcelona 2026

By The Generative Art Museum

Generative Dialogues makes its third appearance, this time within the context of OFFF Festival, a landmark event in Barcelona’s creative scene. Founded in 2000, OFFF has grown into one of the world’s leading festivals dedicated to creativity, design, and post-digital culture, bringing together visionary artists, studios, and thinkers to explore the intersection of creativity, technology, and contemporary visual language.

Generative Dialogues III is an installation that explores generative art as a tool for innovative design, where systems, algorithms, and computation become active elements in the creative process. Rather than producing static visuals, it operates as a living design system that continuously generates new compositions in real time. The installation is composed of four metallic structures, each supporting four screens powered by dedicated high-performance computers. Every minute, a new artwork emerges across the 16 screens, generated from a random seed and precisely synchronized to Coordinated Universal Time (UTC).

Curated by Xavier Hernandez, the selection brings together a diverse constellation of algorithmic systems. Emerging from different technologies and approaches, each work offers a distinct perspective—opening windows into alternative design methodologies. Together, they form a dialogue between code and form, where variation becomes language and computation unfolds as a continuous source of inspiration.
