In this paper, we present a brief theory according to which aesthetics depends on biological and cultural issues, namely on visual image processing. We present an implementation of this theory and the experimental results achieved. The tests were made with two purposes in mind, validating the theory and using it as a basis for the automatic generation and evaluation of images. 1 Introduction The work presented in this paper, is part of an ongoing research project (NEvAr), whose goal is the development of computer programs capable of creating artworks [5]. The main field of study and application is the field of visual arts. We can divide AI applications to the field of Arts in three categories: (1) "Intelligent" tools; (2) Systems performing "art understanding" tasks (e.g. musical analysis); (3) Con...
