Questions about illusionistic art
What do scientists know about creating an illusion of nature?
How do specific artistic techniques work to create this illusion?
If we can mathematically model the limitations of images as a
media, and we know and can model illusionistic techniques for
overcoming these limitations, can we "compute" optimum
illusions?
Can we automatically (or semi-automatically) compute non-
illusionistic stylistic renderings, e.g. for illustration of scientific
data?
