James Faure Walker

James Faure Walker's art does not seem to be generated by an algorithm.

It has been printed by inkjet printers, thus should probably be classified as "generative art". —Preceding unsigned comment added by 213.150.1.75 (talk • contribs) 09:22, September 5, 2007 (UTC)

Removed – it was a redlink anyway. --Lambiam 08:53, 25 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Merge proposal

It is not quite clear to me whether "algorist" is meant to be a general designation for all algorithmic artists – whether they know the term or not – as seems to be the use of the term by Verostko, or identifies members of specific groups that call themselves "Algorists", as seems to be the case here and particularly here. Whichever is the case, it appears to me that there is not enough meat here for a separate Algorists article. --Lambiam 08:43, 25 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Puis-je parler français? je pense aussi que les "algorist" font partie du Computer Art. Il faut de toute façon ajouter plusieurs autres artistes "pionniers": par exemple si l'on se réfère au catalogue de "20th Century Computer Art: Beginnings and Developments" Tama Art University Museum, Tokyo,2007, "the work and thought of pioneers and contemporary practitioners of algorithmic art" on ajoute: Hiroshi Kawano, George Nees, Herbert W.Franke,Frieder Nake, Eugen Roth, Wolfang Kiwus,Edward Zajec,Manfred Mohr, Roman Verostko, Vera Molnar,Hervé Huitric et Monique Nahas, Manuel Barbadillo. Liste loin d'être exhaustive.... :91.165.86.173 (talk) 14:50, 22 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Bien sûr. N'hésitez pas! Mais qu'est-ce-que tu penses de la proposition de fusionner les articles? --Lambiam 22:27, 23 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

"Algorist" is a term for any person "skilled in the design and application of algorithms", not a specific group of artists. 64.3.250.66 (talk) 14:34, 3 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

It seems to me it's a good idea to merge both, and add some references. -- Marcel Douwe Dekker (talk) 15:35, 17 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Merge completed. It's a good idea indeed to add some references. --Lambiam 11:42, 24 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Images?

I think this page is in urgent need of an image. Smartse (talk) 00:34, 4 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Done. Good idea. I've grabbed a visually interesting piece from the creative commons works at Flickr. Marasmusine (talk) 11:48, 10 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
