I read about this in Wired magazine. :D :D
http://www.unrealart.co.uk

"All artworks have been created using data from the game "Unreal Tournament".

Each image represents about 30 mins of gameplay in which the computers AI plays against itself, there are 20-25 bots playing each game.

The Bots play custom maps I create. Each map has been pathed so that the bots have a rough idea of where to go in order to create the image I want.

I log the position (X,Y,Z) of each player each second using a mutator I created, I also log the position of a death. I then run my own code written in processing to create postscript files of that match.

Every image represents 1 full game, and the position of the dots or lines reflects the position of a player at a given time."

I'm glad you posted this, CO. Not only because pictures 6 and 7 are cool as hell, but because this gal has UnrealEd tutorials :D :D :D.

***off topic***
I was messing around with UnrealEd 2.0 yesterday and I made my very first map. It was a large cube with one texture and a crate in the middle. It was cramped, boring, and everyone spawned in the exact same spot, which resulted in lots of telefrags, but I was as proud as a struck out t-ball player's parent :wink:

Says Alison at the bottom so I assume the artist is a woman.
I love number 8, very cool.
