Abstract: Artificial Intelligence (AI) is now widely used across a wide variety of fields. Yet, there are so far very few reported in-depth experimental studies utilising artificial intelligence in modelling cognitively of how the brain or mind processes aesthetics. In this paper, we document our study of aesthetical judgements via Artificial Neural Network (ANN). A technology inspired from neuronal processes of the brain is here enabled through training to derive meanings from symbolic designs. The insights gained from our cognitive neurodynamic modelling of the processes are presented. To the best of our knowledge, ours is probably the first prototypical artificial judge of aesthetics ever created: one capable of assessing designs in a human-like fashion.
