Love this but I wonder if there is a way to go further, you mention pushing past just āprettyā gen art and uncovering systems, making immaterial, material. What other areas could be taught e.g. interconnecting functionality, websockets, social layers

Yeah exactly, modern gen art is often now comprised for a web medium and part of that medium is that its social/inter connectedness at its core I feel like there is a small set of artists who explore this inter connectedness with the other variables to produce compelling pieces but would love to hear more

However, I do think that it doesnāt necessarily need to be locked to web only, maybe the mechanisms can be generalised. Lauren Lee McCarthy and Casey Reas have setup the UCLA Social Software initiative which looks interesting at what social software and gen art have in common
