1A) Something I like that exhibits effective complexity is the circle patterns made in sand by pufferfish. These patterns are highly ordered as they always follow a specific geometric procedure that seems to create nearly identical circles each time. I find this interesting because the pattern is created so instinctively, but cannot be perfect as it was created by a living being under varying underwater conditions.

1B) The Problem of Dynamics
This problem stood out to me because I thought it was strange that people would try to put a restriction on generative art, saying that it MUST exhibit change over time in order to be truly generative, otherwise it is just an artifact. While I think that being dynamic is an interesting quality to have, I don't think that it should be what qualifies art as generative or not. Even when results are "frozen", the process through which they were created was generative.
