Aesthetic science

Stephen Palmer from Berkeley gives an interesting speech on ways aesthetics of visual art is appreciated by humans. He touches on aesthetic science and neuroesthetics which are two recent fields within cognitive science. Eventually the tools created will help us to start understand how the creative mind works. When this field advances it may become even possible to create an artificial aesthetic sense. Future camcorder may include a aesthetic prosthetic, helping us mortals create techically flawless art.
