Abstract

The major techniques in computer art so far are classified into six categories and evaluated. Among these categories, we discuss the function method in details by showing pictures generated by our system ART-3, a small system based on the function method. By this, we want to show the usefulness of mathematics and to demonstrate the enormous possibilities of computer art. Furthermore, the role of artists in the technology-aided art is briefly discussed on the basis of our experience of using ART-3.
