Article-I.D.: utah-cs.1346 Posted: Sun Feb 6 00:39:02 1983 Received: Sun Feb 6 08:32:41 1983 I consider Voss's work ('Factal Planetrise') quite impressive irreguardless of the medium used. Even with more conventional media (paint, models... deep space photography) such an image still requires a lot of care and effort to produce. Releated food for thought- Special effects people for Hollywood (Doug Trumbell or John Dykstra, for example) are frequently refered to as "artists", yet many of the images they produce are much like Voss's (consider the scenery in 2001). jw-peterson.
