Is Noise still noice depending on the form/ state?

Are we talking about form aestethics here, or deciding on forms?
Sure, each state has its values/ rules and beauty.
Chaos as a value free mode form ( not value-less!) is just another state.

The question is not if water is still water if frozen, but what you want to do with it. And thats more scientific than artiful. Or?

Which is heavier; a pound of feathers or a pound of lead?

Noise is used extensively to make recognisable textures in the shaders used in 3D rendering for films and now games. The brain uses neural noise to make sense of a noisy environment.

IMHO How is this different? Surely if one decides that something is a form, or that a form should take a particular form, that is an aesthetic judgement.

Yes, randomness (which I know isn't chaos, but it's useful as an example of an over-profundised idea in techno-art) is a chosen mechanism.

I like it in coke. Or whisky. But not whisky and coke. Yuck. That seems more aesthetic than scientific.

I like it, I was mesmerized by the tones and surprised when they changed (kind of like white noise with a kick!)

however,

I am afraid to say that most of the "code" appears to have been borrowed from http://levitated.net

Jared Tarbell has been producing those "iterations" for the past four years–(he makes the code available for free in the "open source" section) I am a huge fan of his and that is why my mouth dropped when I viewed this piece and saw so many of his experiments contained within and no mention of his name anywhere on the piece.

Hello.

it's very interesting that people picked this up and talking about it now.. this is my very old piece. I made this piecce about 4 years ago.

just to clarify… yes, a lot of code was borrowed from sites such as Flashkit and other actionscript tutorial sites. Thre's no denying. however none from levitated.net. I don't think I was aware of his work back in 2001. Now, I am familar with Jared Tarbell and I'm a fan but I absolutely used none of his code in this project.

Is the tech tool and (de)coding all that matters…
