Video Easel

Welcome to the world of "video art," or, "computer video art," to be exact. This is your opportunity to create imaginative and colorful graphic designs. You can create a design on the screen using the Joystick and/or keyboard, then observe in amazement as the computer expands on the original pattern. Between the patterns already programmed into this cartridge and your own imagination, your possibilities are limitless. VIDEO EASEL is a unique combination of art and mathematics. It is also a terrific opportunity to learn about the fascinating game called "Life" (see below). You will be able to explore the nature of symmetry, while creating artistic designs which change or evolve according to certain rules or laws. You DO NOT have to be a mathematical wizard to use and enjoy this cartridge.
