Abstract

We consider the problem of analyzing the visual imagery that can be found in a neighborhood of just one image selected from a visual image space. The image space we shall explore is a variant of the space of "expressions" as formulated by Karl Sims. Sims' expressions are rooted trees that can be manipulated and searched using the art-by-choice technique known as "evolving expressions." We present a search methodology and give examples from the catalog of imagery we obtained in searching a neighborhood of a fixed image which contained in excess of 10 20 instances of possible images. We draw conclusions about what this portends for future work on search engines developed for exploring artistically non-linear spaces.
