Multi-Dimensional Language Models and Their Applications in Visual Arts

This thesis is concerned with application of formal models, namely four-way and cellular automata, in the field of visual arts. New models were designed in order to recognize, modify, and transform an input grid comprised of tiles. These models are implemented in an application accepting an input grid, which is colourized and transformed in the serial art style of Victor Vasarely. The result of this work is a synthesis of an input grid and a colour reference into a video visualisation of the transformations carried out by the newly designed cellular automaton
