I saw the post earlier about making maps using Python. I thought that was a really cool concept as I love seeing open art projects like that. Do you know any other projects that allow you to make art with code?

    Processing and its descendants, p5.js, p5.py. Nannou for Rust.

    vpype is a really powerful python library/toolkit for generating art for plotters (drawing robots).

    Blender with python scripting is also widely used.

    Some relevant keywords: “procedural art”, “generative art” (generative AI is kinda killing this one), “creative coding”, “algorithmic art”, “plotter art”, “pen plotter”, “live coding” (for music with code)

    The fediverse (mostly mastodon) has a decent presence of artists, usually tagging works with some of the above keywords.
