I seem to recall Data doing a painting at some point, a square divided in half, one of the halves being divided in half, one of those halves being divided, ad infinitum. I think that painting was a duplicate of a real painting. Anybody know if it was, and if so, what the painting was?

Whether it was a copy of a real one or not, it was definitely in the style of a real artist. I can't remember his name off the top of my head, though. Data was always doing stuff in the style of one famous artist or another. I seem to remember a Cubist painting of a cat... in Generations I think.

Are you sure it was a square? It wouldn't happen to be the Golden Rectangle, would it?

I can't speak to the specific painting you remember, but as far as modernist geometry-type things go, I seem to recall Data spending a lot of time painting faux-Mondrians.
There's no website obsessively focused on Data's paintings, alas, but there are a couple out there with some examples.
Mondrian is the artist I was thinking of.

Was it that painting with a white background and red and black lines from the later TNG seasons? I know it reminded me of Mondrian's since it looks similar to the Los Angeles Couty Museum of Art's.

So, is anyone willing (and able) to make nice DVD screencaptures of diverse paintings done by Data? I mean, bridges are fine, but what the people really want are websites full of Star Trek-related artworks.

You'll be sorry....
You're far better off with the James Darren CD.
Posted by Bones McCoy (Member # 1480) on :
By the way, is James Darren related in any way to Bobby Darrin? I always wondered about that...
Posted by Intruder1701 (Member # 880) on :
Well just by the way you spelled you should have figured out that Darren and Darrin were not brothers
Posted by Bones McCoy (Member # 1480) on :
Yeah, not brothers... I dunno. It just seemed like a coincidence.

"Oh that shark, babe, with those teeth, dear..." Good stuff. Don't make it like that anymore.

Yes, but thats probably due to laws that have since been passed.
