Robot Molecule Generative Art
The code in this repo powers http://robotmolecule.com, where a new generative artwork is posted every hour. You can buy prints, tees, household goods and other productswith some of these works at https://anaulin.redbubble.com
Each directory in this repo contains a different "dream" type for the Robot Molecule.

Development
Virtual env and dependency install
Create new virtual env:
$ python3 -m venv .venv
Activate virtual env:
$ source .venv/bin/activate
Install requirements:
pip install -r requirements.txt
Installing pycairo
On macOS, you'll need to install cairo itself first. You can do this using Homebrew:
$ brew install --cc=clang cairo
If you get an error that says 'pkg-config' not found, try:
$ brew install pkg-config
See more discussion on this error here: https://github.com/googlefonts/fontdiffenator/issues/38
Installing Shapely dependencies
It needs the geos library:
$ brew install geos
Installing Pillow dependencies
$ brew install libjpeg
