    M. C. Escher
    There's the famous well known M. C. Escher famous for placing strange loops in his work thus making his tessellations and peculiar drawings centered on curious near mathematical conundrums (Mobius Strips [mcescher.com], infinite limits [mcescher.com], undefined boundaries [mcescher.com], etc). For the most part, I believe he did woodcuts [mcescher.com] so if you're thinking about originals ... well, woodcuts are an odd market.

    Fractal Art
    There are several variants of this and you could buy some or create it yourself (not hard to find scripts that do this). It ranges from in your face [fractalism.com] to subtle [fractalartcontests.com]. This is common and widely created.

    Slashdot Story Art
    A while back, there was a story on some humorous computer science-y art [slashdot.org] you could ask the original artist for permission to use.

    Or you can just look at various [sanu.ac.yu] collections [sciencenews.org] for your own tastes.

In particular, I know Jeff Ely does great stuff that way, usually involving newton's method for polynomial solving, and fancy other constructs using simple objects.

    You could take a very interesting approach to this and employ Piet [dangermouse.net] which is a type of programming language that results in writing programs utilizing colors and blocks and traverses them as the program runs, resulting in some nice looking 'modern' art [dangermouse.net]. The neat thing about this is you could open up a contest to your developers to come up with beautiful ways to write simple programs and procedures and then vote on the most beautiful ones. To me, something coded to be both beautiful and functional would be highly desirable. The fact that it would come from within your developers would probably add to the effect among your staff.

All the conference rooms there were themed on a person important to computing, for instance, the Babbage Auditorium, conference rooms for (Grace) Hopper, (Herman) Hollerith, etc. Most of the rooms were named after computing or mathematical historical people, for instance, Konrad Zuse (as I recall, there was an original painting by Zuse in that room), Ramanujan, Heisenberg, and Schroedinger (don't look inside!) and some for people who were not dead (though Grace Hopper did actually see her conference room) like Metcalfe and Boggs, Gordon Bell, Jean Sammet, etc.

    Each room had a likeness of the person, one or more plexiglass plaques describing their accomplishments, and artwork related to their inventions/discoveries. It was always interesting to go into a new conference room and see who it featured and what they did.

    DATAWOCKY - by Jack Stack

    'Twas global and the megabytes
    Did gyre and gimbal on the disk
    All mimsy were the prompts and codes
    And the software was brisk

    Beware the microchip my son
    The bits, the bytes and bauds and such
    Beware the CRT and shun
    The qwerty keyboard's clutch

    He took his self-pace book in hand
    Long time the menu key he sought
    Then wrestled he with the toaster drive
    And sat a while in thought

    Then as he sought that glitchy bug
    The microchip, with gates aflame,
    Came whiffling through its I/O plug
    And processed as it came

    Asynch, Bisynch, all protocols,
    His binary went snicker snack,
    He felt it crash, and with a dash
    He came galumphing back

    And dids't thou tame the microchip
    Come interface my beamish boy
    O frabjous day, Caloo! Callay!
    O database, O Joy

    'Twas global and the megabytes
    Did gyre and gimbal on the disk
    All mimsy were the prompts and codes
    And the software was brisk

    As a standalone poem, it's a bit insipid. But a copy of the original article, with illustration, is a work of art that I have been searching for, unsuccessfully, for years now.
