Generative Mathematics
One of the main functions of the computer is the graphic display of results. Through the use of the computer, the visualization of mathematical relations can lead to new ways of comprehending mathematics. In addition, the resulting images can be remarkably attractive. The authors show how mathematics can be used as a tool for the creation of artistic images. They present examples of methods that illustrate how long-established relationships betwe…

The Expanding Medium
The author explains that computer art is still in its initial stages of development, for it has been in existence but a short time and the underlying technology is not yet fully mature. He anticipates that high-resolution screens will lead to better images and that improved computer performance will permit real-time animation of photorealistic images. Three-dimensional representation will stimulate visual artists to work and think in new ways, fo…

Differences in Visual Perception
A Cybernetic Approach to Aesthetics
The author considers, in particular, the information contained in pictures and the way in which artists pr oduce them and viewers respond to them from the point of view of cybernetics. He points out (1) that the maximum rate at which the human brain can consciously receive discrete items or bits of information from the senses is about 16 bits/sec and (2) that, since the short-term memory can retain information for only about 10 sec (the period ca…

A Computer Perspective
A Computer Perspective is an illustrated essay on the origins and first lines of development of the computer. The complex network of creative forces and social pressures that have produced the computer is personified here in the creators of instruments of computation, and their machines or tables; the inventors of mathematical or logical concepts and their applications; and the fabricators of practical devices to serve the immediate needs of gove…
Some Remarks on Visual Fine Art in the Age of Advanced Technology
The visual or plastic fine arts hold a relatively high place in Western culture. Considerable public and private funds are devoted to the making and sale of art works and to education for art appreciation. Yet, paradoxically, there is no general agreement as to what art is or what it is good for. This is causing an ever increasing uneasiness among artists and especially among art students. The incompatibility between values and instruction in tra…

On Producing Graded Black and White or Colour Computer Graphics in Combination with a Photographic Technique
Digital computers are being applied in various ways in the visual fine arts [1-3]. One way is to use the computer to provide data for the design of a manually executed painting. Z. Sykora [4] obtains from a computer, in accordance with a set of specified rules, instructions on the arrangement of arrays of squares containing geometrical designs. M. Barbadillo makes pictures comprised of variations of shapes contained in an initial modular square. …
