Harold Cohen created Aaron. I like to consider Aaron the art piece and also he is doing art. Or actually Harold is programing Aaron to do art. I just am so easily fascinated by how machines do what they do. We can program them to do just about anything which is really cool and kind of scary too.
I like the idea that Harold does not want to program to much into Aaron. I guess he wants Aaron to "have a mind of his own." Which is interesting because he is not a human or even living for that matter so he can't have a mind of his own can he? Can you program something to have a mind of its own? Interesting. This piece above is one of Aaron's pieces that is well known. It is very elementary, very simple but I enjoy looking at it. Its very colorful and vibrant and looks well done.
