In this image I try to show how appropriate respect for artistic conventions can transfer to digital art. Digital art must follow the general rules of natural human aesthetics, as any artistic technique must to communicate anything. Yet rules were made to be bent and broken. 

In Ruminations I maintain a certain complexity level while attempting to conform to classical complimentary placement and density of image elements. These rules, and how we break them, extend over all media, whether natural or synthetic.

Some fractal images are obviously generated by computers. Ruminations could have been painted by Klee. The point is that humans decide what is art, not the tools or machines which are used to construct the art works. If there were such a thing as machine intelligence, would it be able to appreciate art on its own?
