TOWER OF BABEL
—· Leslei Mezei, Artist, and David Payne, Programmer
The five pictures shown on this and the adjacent. page are part of a series bascd on a "Towcr of Babel". The original tower was
made up oi the word "BABEL" repeated twenty times, each ward placed on top of the last, wnth the width at the bottom being four
limes that at the top. Each of the pictures is a mathematical or random distortion of this same tower. The programming language
Sparta (a graphic procedure-oriented language consisting of Fortran IV subroutines) was used 0n an IBM 7094-ll.

Each point of the tower Was displaced both horizontally and

was obtained from S Gaussian distribution with a mean oi zero
and 2 standard deviation of 0. D5. The maximum displacement The distance r of each point from the center was replaced by

IDFZALIZED BRUSH 5'1`ROKES
— Dr. Evan Harris \\`all<cr
The idea behind this picture is that by studying mathematically the coxnpcsiticml elements cniploved bv the arent artists, one might
discover artistic princnplesg und with the aid 0I ai computer, these principles could he tested l>v using them to gmwratc neu examples
of nrt, As zi starting point, u¤mplctcl5 random zirrzingemcnts ni rcctan;-gies (vdealired brush strokes) were examined. This prcture
makes use ol sexeral concepts that have been developed to produce organization in pattern and color,
The program uns written in 1`0rtr>in for nn IBM 704U, The pattern of each suh-element is printed out to scale (using; sixteen E7" square
blocks of printout) together iaith the eolur designation in terms of the Munsull slxmdurzl enlor notation. The printing is pruducen on
canvas using acrylic puirit.
