Leonardo 23:1 (1990), Presented at ISEA 88 (Utrecht) The author discusses a personal expert computer system driven by his own 'software art'. The software (with appropriate hardware) generates paintings and drawings that resemble the mature work of the artist's pre-electronic period, containing brush strokes that exhibit spontaneous qualities. The author outlines the prerequisite understaning necessary for writing the code, aspects of the software and hardware implementation, the biological analogue (epigenesis) and salient questions raised by the new procedure Available at www.verostko.com/epigenet.html "Notes on Epigenetic Art...", Genetic Art - Artificial Life Ed K.Gerbel & P.Weibel, Vienna, 1993.
