Beschreibung:Abstract This paper focuses on examining how generative art and information visualization, together, can generate artistic discourses. This central question raises other questions, such as the media that can be used for this purpose and the characteristics of the new spaces that emerge from this intersection. Generative art is explored as a tool for creating heterotopias, understood as spaces that challenge conventional norms, using data visualization as a narrative raw material. The study is developed from a theoretical-interpretive approach, through a bibliographic review and the analysis of interactive works. To this end, the concepts of heterotopia proposed by Michel Foucault are addressed, as well as the definitions of generative art and information visualization according to Philip Galanter and Lev Manovich, respectively. The paper seeks to understand how generativity and visualization can be combined to generate interactive artistic spaces that involve collective, asynchronous, and networked participation. It concludes that data visualization and digital generativity allow for the configuration of interactive heterotopic spaces where the public participates asynchronously and collectively.
