Process

A computer algorithm generates an adjective-noun phrase.

The artist thinks about this phrase while the computer reads his brainwaves and body signals.

The computer uses this data to generate fractal flames.

The computer searches the internet for images of the phrase, which it uses to create a color palette.

The computer shows the artist several results, measuring his brainwaves and body signals; it uses artificial intelligence to select which he likes best.

The final result is rendered for printing.
