My friend Dora (a Portland State University grad student) has completed the project paper based on her Chaos and Aesthetics Survey - thanks very much to any Existence is Wonderful readers who helped provide her with data!
The "short version" of the results is here (note: it may not make a lot of sense to folks outside Artificial Life classes); a (more accessible) PDF of her presentation explaining the survey's creation process and offering an analysis of the results is here.
I'm not particularly well-versed in Artificial Life studies myself, but I'm definitely intrigued by the idea, and I find it super-nifty indeed that there exists a field of study wherein art, math, and computer programming are so closely intertwined.
(Also, I should point out that in Dora's presentation PDF, the bulk of the text was written as a script to be read by a computerized text-to-speech program -- hence the occasional "odd" spelling here and there.)
