What already exists?

So the concept generator?
Before continuing with my research i must answer the following questions:
What already exists?
To what extent do they provide a solution?

After trawling through many sites, search engines and reading material i stumbled across a concept generator by VISPO. An online site which includes a number of generative art pieces.

The features that this concept generator offer to the user:
Choose your search engine. You can choose google, yahoo, google then yaho or yahoo then google. When trying these methods it is apparent there is a clear difference in the returned images.

The limitations to this application is that the user can only search for a concept. I propose to offer users a concept drawn from a number of areas.

Using an online image ripper created by dearcomputer.nl i am currently ripping images from there google image rippper. At present im finding it hard to rip the html from a search directly from the google homepage. I believe that google recognises that php is not actually a browser.

Google image ripper.
