Article-I.D.: burdvax.530 Posted: Thu Feb 3 20:26:36 1983 Received: Sun Feb 6 10:10:43 1983 I can certainly admire Richard Voss's "Fractal Planetrise According to Benoit Mandelbrot" as an exercise in mathematics. And, yes, I do agree that it blows Walter Wright's untitled picture away, visually. But frankly, neither of them makes me @i[feel] anything inside. Neither evokes any sort of emotion from me. And, to me, emotional content is one of the things that differentiates, for instance, designs (I am @i[not] saying that Voss's work is a design!) from art. What do you think?
