Emergence and self-organization being two key concepts in the simulation of complex systems. This is done using computer modeling tools of known or possibly reinvented scientific models. As part of a certain historical continuity - which can be traced back to the avant-gardes of the early 20th century and which seeks to integrate into the artwork the vital process rather than its result - the research is materialized by the realization of a serie of animations in the form of executable programs. The first generative animations that were created, make it possible to observe, in the course of time, the feeling of self-organization of the system which evolves and ends up stabilizing itself by acquiring new properties. The use of modeling and simulation tools allows to explore a palette of rules for individual and local behavior of elements (named « agents » in the computational context) leading to the emergence of collective and global phenomena, which can express more or less stable relational states. Micro-universes in perpetual evolution, these animations are called "Endless Dynamic Painting-Systems" which, according to the principle of autopoiesis, will be enhanced with resilience capacities in the future development of the project. The aim of such a project being, in the long term, to envisage the writing of a treatise on the modeling of " Endless Dynamic Painting-Systems ", that will be a sort of cybernetic counterpart to the theory of forms as elaborated by W. Kandinsky for painting.}}
