I've only seen one reference to snakes, in a book of papers given at a 1987 visual language recognition conference, which I was browsing through. something similar may be going on in Illustrator 88 for the Mac, which can convert a (pixelized) mac paint picture into linearized Postscript (which may then be tweaked). The problem is not so tough, especially if you allow for human intervention and "taste". I'll see if I can find the book again – it's not as if I hadn't though of something like snakes before seeing the reference, but the 3-d aspect of it fascinated me. Even Amy's 16-level grey scale would probably suffice. J H H Lowengard – what? me go to a conference or sumpin' ?
