The following system of rules was written with the intent to create an visually interesting result, while allowing the result to be determined entirely by the rules, or steps.

 

Step 1: Roll die to determine color of ink to fill snowball with
Step 2: Throw ink-filled snowball onto canvas
Step 3: Roll die to determine direction to blow snowball with hair dryer
Step 4: Repeat step three until snow ball melts
Step 5: Begin again from step one, until one hundred colored marks are made on the canvas

 

After writing these rules, Michael Grover and Tianyi Xie made no creative choices. We only followed our predetermined steps to their conclusion.
