Popis: This article will present some research which makes use of the computer with a video disk player to do aesthetic analyses of the work of Vincent Van Gogh. The article consists of: 1) a discussion of video disk system with IBM Infowindows, 2) a discussion of several software systems. Several possible uses of the computer with interactive video disks for aesthetic analyses and creative efforts will be presented. The article will also present the brief results of a pilot study undertaken to collect data relative to student's aesthetic preference with a video disk of the work of Vincent Van Gogh. It will discuss how IBM's Handy software and authoring language might be employed to collect data and present interactive experimental treatments of research in empirical aesthetics. The article concludes with some speculations about those behaviors which are related to machine mediated learning and which may be unintended consequences of the instructional programs which employ the use of computer and multi-media workstations in the study of art and the considerations of variables of aesthetic preference.
