Barbara Hayes-Roth, Stanford University and Extempo Systems Inc. In contemplating the possibility of interactive story systems, I begin with two premises, an artistic premise and a technical premise. My artistic premise is that we should strive for an interactive story experience that achieves for the participant the same artistic goals achieved by the great works of fiction in the traditional ...

According to R. G. Collingwood in The Principles of Art, art is the expression of emotion--a much-criticized view. I attempt to provide some groundwork for a defensible modern version of such a theory via some novel further criticisms of Collingwood, including the exposure of multiple ambiguities in his main concept of expression of emotion, and a demonstration that, surprisingly enough, his vi...

We have shown that it is possible to achieve artistic style transfer within a purely image processing paradigm. This is in contrast to previous work that utilized deep neural networks to learn the difference between “style” and “content” in a painting. We leverage the work by Kwatra et. al. on texture synthesis to accomplish “style synthesis” from our given style images, building off the work o...

BACKGROUND Art is a characteristic of mankind, which requires superior central nervous processing and integration of motor functions with visual information. At the present time, a significant amount of information related to neurobiological basis of artistic creation has been derived from neuro-radiological cognitive studies, which have revealed that subsequent to tissue destruction, the artis...

This paper deals with relations of mathematics and fine art with a focus on geometric structures captured as visual art compositions. It aims to show similarities between mathematical and artistic solutions applied in the creation of a piece of work – artistic masterpiece or mathematical assumption. Some ideas are brought about their common underlying principles and motifs together with the con...
