Abstract (EN): This paper proposes an analytical model for computational aesthetic artifacts based on Espen Aarseth's work. It reflects procedural affinities that may not be found when focusing on surface structures and on aesthetic analyses developed from them. The model attests to the importance of computational characteristics and of procedurality, both as conceptual groundings and as aesthetic focuses, as aesthetics pleasures in themselves.
