Book excerpt: The Eighties was a special time for the creative people who participated, made up of absolute visual liberty with no fear of making mistakes, of the excessive or of Kitsch. The market wanted ever-new ideas and the search for not-yet-discovered things. We could take the daring step and match styles that none would have done before. The graphics of that period did not have the strength to transform a product or indeed enough force in design to risk combining circle and triangle, soft curves and broken lines. If anything, they were an accompaniment, like a brand or a label, succeeding less than a texture or a form could, in decoration. However, research went on in the same daring ways, looking for unusual cuts and graphic quotes. Decisive colours with a lot of black in attendance, many nets, pois, lines and optical effects, mixing photos and designs, ancient and modern. New fonts were beginning to be used, the need was not yet obvious, but unconscious. These were the Eighties. Textures had invaded the market. With a new texture the same old, tired product lived again and became appetising, quite apart from quality and innovation. To be visible always, come what may, was over-consumistic society's "must". AUTHOR: Vincenzo Sguera, an Italian architect, has been working in the field of design, fashion, textiles and accessories, directing several creative studios and developing products for many companies at an international level since 1977. In 2003 he founded Arkivia Books and has since worked as an author and publisher.

Download or read book A Garden s Purpose written by Félix de Rosen and published by Chronicle Books. This book was released on 2023-03-14 with total page 195 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Essays and stories to inspire us to nurture diverse, meaningful relationships with gardens and landscapes. "A garden, as Félix de Rosen suggests in this book, is not a place separate to the world but a tether to it. At a time of increasing ecological and cultural fragmentation and loss, de Rosen reminds us of the importance of the garden as a place of gentle activism and abundance, and gardening as a framework for being with the more-than-human world—engaging with care, reciprocity, and creativity. A Garden's Purpose is an important, timely book." — Georgina Reid, editor of Wonderground Journal and author of The Planthunter: Truth, Beauty, Chaos, and Plants The garden provides a powerful, generous way of looking at the world. Through stories and essays, this gracious volume, written in a highly accessible tone, invites readers on a journey to understand gardens as places where we build mutually beneficial relationships with the living world around us. As beautiful spaces, gardens fill us with hope and wonder. As gathering places, they nurture friendships and communities. Thoughtfully crafted, they make us pause and appreciate our surroundings. Full of edible plants, they nourish us. Full of diversity—human and non-human—they connect us with the polychromatic world in which we live. They make us feel at home in our own bodies, in our cities, and on our planet. Each chapter in this book is dedicated to a specific idea or element of the garden, from places where gardens grow (i.e., a driveway in San Francisco, a bathtub as a planter) to garden management (why some lawns need watering every few days, and some gardens can go almost a full year without irrigation) to color and texture (i.e., how fine-textured plants like grasses can be used to unify a space), and everything in between. Hundreds of gardens from all corners of the globe are included, photographed in glorious full color. Perfect for home gardeners, landscape designers, or as a gift for the gardener in your life, this is an ode to the wonder, design, and habitat of gardens, and an inspiration to nurture meaningful relationships with the natural world around us.
Download or read book Invariant Recognition of Visual Objects written by Evgeniy Bart and published by Frontiers E-books. This book was released on with total page 195 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Research Topic will focus on how the visual system recognizes objects regardless of variations in the viewpoint, illumination, retinal size, background, etc. Contributors are encouraged to submit articles describing novel results, models, viewpoints, perspectives and/or methodological innovations relevant to this topic. The issues we wish to cover include, but are not limited to, perceptual invariance under one or more of the following types of image variation: • Object shape • Task • Viewpoint (from the translation and rotation of the object relative to the viewer) • Illumination, shading, and shadows • Degree of occlusion • Retinal size • Color • Surface texture • Visual context, including background clutter and crowding • Object motion (including biological motion). Examples of questions that are particularly interesting in this context include, but are not limited to: • Empirical characterizations of properties of invariance: does invariance always exist? How wide is its range and how strong is the tolerance to viewing conditions within this range? • Invariance in naïve vs. experienced subjects: Is invariance built-in or learned? How can it be learned, under which conditions and how effectively? Is it learned incidentally, or are specific task and reward structures necessary for learning? How is generalizability and transfer of learning related to the generalizability/invariance of perception? • Invariance during inference: Are there conditions (e.g. fast presentation time or otherwise resource-constrained recognition) when invariance breaks? • What are some plausible computational or neural mechanisms by which invariance could be achieved?

Download or read book Computational Texture and Patterns written by Kristin J. Dana and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-05-31 with total page 99 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Visual pattern analysis is a fundamental tool in mining data for knowledge. Computational representations for patterns and texture allow us to summarize, store, compare, and label in order to learn about the physical world. Our ability to capture visual imagery with cameras and sensors has resulted in vast amounts of raw data, but using this information effectively in a task-specific manner requires sophisticated computational representations. We enumerate specific desirable traits for these representations: (1) intraclass invariance—to support recognition; (2) illumination and geometric invariance for robustness to imaging conditions; (3) support for prediction and synthesis to use the model to infer continuation of the pattern; (4) support for change detection to detect anomalies and perturbations; and (5) support for physics-based interpretation to infer system properties from appearance. In recent years, computer vision has undergone a metamorphosis with classic algorithms adapting to new trends in deep learning. This text provides a tour of algorithm evolution including pattern recognition, segmentation and synthesis. We consider the general relevance and prominence of visual pattern analysis and applications that rely on computational models.
