- | ======Evolvotron====== | ||
- | |||
- | [[http://www.bottlenose.net/share/evolvotron/index.htm|Evolvotron]] is interactive //generative art// software that evolves images, textures, and patterns through an iterative process of random mutation and user-selected evolution. | ||
- | |||
- | <WRAP warning> | ||
- | Beware! This is part of Slackermedia's **Fringe Collection**. This application is not a "normal" art application, and is experimental not in stability but in results. You may or may not find this at all interesting, depending on your artistic sensibility. | ||

- | =====Install===== | ||
- | |||
- | Download the Evolvotron source code from [[http://sourceforge.net/projects/evolvotron/index.htm]]. | ||
- | |||
- | Untar it and change into the source directory. The easiest way to build it successfully is to run the ''BUILD'' file, which configures and compiles the code, leaving the executable binary in the same directory. | ||
- | |||
- | <code> | ||
- | $ tar -xf evolvotron-x.y.z.tar.gz | ||
- | $ cd evolvotron-1.6.3 | ||
- | $ ./BUILD | ||
- | </code> | ||
- | |||
- | To install the application and its libraries to your system, use ''makepkg''. | ||
- | |||
- | <code> | ||
- | $ mkdir /tmp/evolvotron | ||
- | $ make install DESTDIR=/tmp/evolvotron | ||
- | $ su -c '/sbin/makepkg -l y -c n /tmp/evolvotron-x.y.z-$(uname -m)-1_SMi.tgz' | ||
- | $ su -c 'installpkg /tmp/evolvotron*tgz' | ||
- | </code> | ||
- | |||
- | Evolvotron will not show up in your application menu because it does not ship with a ''.desktop'' file. You can [[dotdesktop|create your own]] or just launch it from a terminal. | ||
