The Background

In the above work there is a fundamental asymmetry between sound and image:


A basic "Sound Generator" can be created by a simple oscillator
-but what would be the equivalent "Image Generator"?

A more recent digitally simulated study for a video based Image Generator



There is also a semantic problem:
What is an "Image"?
An image of what?

This question is tackled here
