== Abstract ==
This paper addresses problems in computational creative
discovery, either autonomous or in synergetic tandem with
humans. A computer program generates output as a com-
bination of base primitives whose interpretation must lie
outside the program itself. Concepts of combinatoric and
creative emergence are analysed in relation to creative out-
puts being novel and appropriate combinations of base
primitives, with the conclusion that the choice of the gen-
erative process that builds and combines the primitives is
of high importance. The generalised concept of an artifi-
cial ecosystem, which adapts concepts and processes from
a biological ecosystem at a metaphoric level, is an appro-
priate generative system for creative discovery. The fun-
damental properties of artificial ecosystems are discussed
and examples given in two different creative problem do-
mains. Systems are implemented as pure simulation, and
where the ecosystem concept is expanded to include real
environments and people as ecosystem components, offer
an alternative to the ‘software tool’ approach of conven-
tional creative software.
