Have you looked at the other examples? http://extrapolated-art.com/

Some of these are pretty impressive and do more than just pattern repetition.

I'm going to agree with the critics - I think you may be confusing technical problem-solving with artistic awareness.

They're all interesting as technology demonstrations, but none of them improve on the original compositions, and some of them are almost completely unsuccessful as visual art.
