Book excerpt: "The Kansas 150 Art Competition" is the centerpiece of SouthWind Gallery's participation in Savor Kansas, a month long celebration of the Kansas Sesquicentennial. An article in Southwest Art Magazine about an annual celebration of arts and culture was the genesis for Savor Kansas. The concept of Savor Kansas was to showcase each of the visual, performing and culinary arts in Kansas during the month of June 2011. Each organization involved created and funded its own event which required the efforts of many individuals to work together to make Savor Kansas a reality. SouthWind Gallery has committed 10 percent of the art sales to ARTSConnect, continuing a tradition of supporting the arts in Kansas. We enlisted the expertise of two distinguished individuals to serve as jurors, Neil Patterson, OPAM, President of the Oil Painters of America, and Kristin Hoerth, Editor in Chief, for Southwest Art Magazine. Over 300 entries were received for the competition and of these, 150 were selected for exhibit and for publication in this book. Here we present the juried collection of original art by artists from Kansas, and throughout the United States. Some of the artists are highly trained, others are self- taught, but each has skillfully created his or her own artistic vision of Kansas. Some chose a realistic style, some chose impressionistic, and some preferred abstract, edgy, or another stylistic effect. The mediums used include oils, acrylic, watercolor, pastel, encaustic, mixed media, fiber and photography. Whatever style and medium the artist chose to work with, "Kansas" was required to be the subject. We left it up to the artists to portray their impressions of Kansas, whether it was landscapes, architecture, indigenous people, animals or plant life that they chose to depict. Kansas is a state rich in history and diverse beauty. From the forests and bluffs in the eastern part of the state, to the gently undulating hills of the tall grass prairies, to the western flatlands where earth and sky meet and seem to go on forever, there is something that stirs the creativity of the many artists who live here as well as those just passing through on their way to somewhere else. SouthWind Gallery is pleased to present the unique beauty of Kansas through the eyes of the artists whose works were chosen for this book.

Download or read book Neuro Symbolic Artificial Intelligence The State of the Art written by P. Hitzler and published by IOS Press. This book was released on 2022-01-19 with total page 410 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Neuro-symbolic AI is an emerging subfield of Artificial Intelligence that brings together two hitherto distinct approaches. ”Neuro” refers to the artificial neural networks prominent in machine learning, ”symbolic” refers to algorithmic processing on the level of meaningful symbols, prominent in knowledge representation. In the past, these two fields of AI have been largely separate, with very little crossover, but the so-called “third wave” of AI is now bringing them together. This book, Neuro-Symbolic Artificial Intelligence: The State of the Art, provides an overview of this development in AI. The two approaches differ significantly in terms of their strengths and weaknesses and, from a cognitive-science perspective, there is a question as to how a neural system can perform symbol manipulation, and how the representational differences between these two approaches can be bridged. The book presents 17 overview papers, all by authors who have made significant contributions in the past few years and starting with a historic overview first seen in 2016. With just seven months elapsed from invitation to authors to final copy, the book is as up-to-date as a published overview of this subject can be. Based on the editors’ own desire to understand the current state of the art, this book reflects the breadth and depth of the latest developments in neuro-symbolic AI, and will be of interest to students, researchers, and all those working in the field of Artificial Intelligence.

Book excerpt: Artist John Steuart Curry (1897-1946) was raised on a farm in Northeast Kansas and is best known for his depictions of the Midwest. Another region revealed in his art, the American West, has always deserved more attention. Experiences on a family-owned ranch in Arizona nurtured Curry's love of the Western landscape. During the 1920s the artist illustrated serialized magazine stories that took readers on Wild West adventures. In later years he interpreted the history of Westward expansion in murals for federal buildings and classic novels such as James Fenimore Cooper's The Prairie. Through more than forty works, including paintings and magazine illustrations, this exhibition catalogue explores the motives for Curry's fascination with the region and the dialogue between his depictions of a real and imagined American West. Co-curated by independent scholar Frank N. Owings Jr. and Curator Elizabeth G. Seaton of Kansas State University's Marianna Kistler Beach Museum of Art, John Steuart Curry: The Cowboy Within is accompanied by an introduction by William H. Truettner, former Smithsonian American Art Museum curator and editor and author of The West as America: Reinterpreting Images of the Frontier, 1820 - 1920.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A New Centennial History of the State of Kansas: Being a Full and Complete Civil, Political and Military History of the State, From Its Earliest Settlement to the Present Time The central state of the union must, in the progress of time, become of im mense importance in the economy of the nation, and may be the seat of empire; hence it is of some moment that every possible contribution toward its authentic history should be preserved in such form as will be best availa ble toward constructing the philosophy of its development, when Chronos shall have ripened his fruit; and for the same reason it is to be desired that the writer should throw no unjustifiable animus into his narration. History should be for society and man, what the earth's crust is for the mons of time that have elapsed since its primary rocks were first solidified; a faithful pre scutation of every fact and feature, whose imprint could be made before the fugitive and protean matter had put on another semblance. The chronicler whose capacity may enable him to achieve a result so glorious will make a name greater than Herodotus aimed at, or Thucydides imagined; and there are approaches toward that degree of excellence among the writers now liv ing, or just passing away. Such a design could not be fulfilled for Kansas, except in arudimentary and incomplete way at the present era; but it is something to have helped in preparing the material for a great edifice, and to that extent the writer hopes he has attained a measure of success.
