It's hard to call it "Game Generated Artwork" when the results depend on photographs or specially-designed maps. It looks like the bots are just a glorified filter, and the artist has to play with a bunch of digital processing afterwards to end up with the intended look. Sure, many of the pictures do look nice, but it's far from pure procedural art. And that seems to be what the site intends you to take it as.

Some pieces of art look like a picture from Ogrish though. Except it's less red. Such pretty eyes and such kissable lips, she has! Some pieces of art look like a picture from Ogrish though.

Not all the artworks I create rely on this stage, some of them are specifically tailored toward a certain colour, some are random and some use a death as a marker for changing colour." um, there was ment to be a block quote,

The colours have zero relation to the bot paths and only thanks to the colours does the art actually look like art... unless, of course, I missed something important? Not very exciting.

Like a photoshop filter? So it seems like the bot movement is overlaid on top of an existing image, is that right? Like a photoshop filter?
