Professor Max Bense, whose theory of generative aesthetics has been based on computing procedures, has pointed out that randomness involved in computer graphics replaces that aspect in art which is described as intuitive. Thus the randomizing procedures in computer technology are analogous to an artist’s intuition. This theory is questionable but it shows that attempts are being made to find equivalence between human activities in the sphere of creativity and the realization of those activities with the aid of a cybernetic device.
