combinFormation is a system that assists creators with the process of information discovery. A human user seeds the system with web searches, and the system downloads images from the web and creates a visual composition. The user explores the search results, takes notes, finds new information, and re-arranges the composition; combinFormation’s generative algorithms learn from the user and adjust the composition and search results accordingly.
