“It is about the programming of structures. Their characteristics are determined by a type of element, and by the rules they follow. The elements are built up from simple geometric forms – by dividing or joining those forms. These are constructed in such a way that the machine can distinguish them by type and position. [...]
The state of the program is determined by four rules:
the elements must join on the basis of their color;
the elements must not join on the basis of their color;
the elements must join on the basis of their form (in case, circles); the elements must not join on the of their form (in this case, circles).”
