1 The Sublime beyond Generative Art The Nature of Code Fall 2006 Kenny Kyungmi Kim

2 A human perspective and feeling about Nature.

3 Meaning in Aesthetics The sublime (from the Latin sublimis (under the lintel, high, exalted)) is the quality of transcendent greatness, whether physical, moral, intellectual, metaphysical or artistic. The term especially refers to a greatness with which nothing else can be compared and which is beyond all possibility of calculation, measurement or imitation. This greatness is often used when referring to nature and its vastness. Edmund Burke and Immanuel Kant both investigated the subject. Both men distinguished the sublime from the beautiful. Later writers tend to include the sublime in the beautiful. (compare Burke’s Essay on the Sublime and Beautiful, 1756, and Kant's Observations on the Feeling of the Beautiful and Sublime, 1764).
