Images Generated by C.A.T.I.E. (Compositional Aesthetics Through Integrated Electrodynamics)

generated via C.A.T.I.E, written in C++

2004-2005

The images were generated by minimizing "color" and "shape" potential (that are similar to magnetic and electric potentials) to create aesthetically balanced images. The images were then subject to a survey that compared them to real human designed images -- and subjects could not tell what was C.A.T.I.E. generated and what was human.
