On a slightly different subject, but related - I have tried to write computer
programs that imitate the paintings of Jackson Pollock - and it is
very difficult. It is probably not impossible, but it would require
essentially coding in the exact style of any painting. I did produce
programs that make nice screen images, quite arty, but I never got close
to the real thing.
