To do so, you'd have to establish that the form of the expressive
elements (not the strictly functional ones, which are not in general
copyrightable) within the source code were actually important to the
artistic work, rather than the appearance of the source code being a
stand-in for a generic idea of source code and thus de minimus or fair use.
It seems very unlikely.
