Download or read book Los colores primarios written by Alexander Theroux and published by La Bestia Equilátera. This book was released on 2020-06-17 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Son tres. Azul, amarillo, rojo. El azul del misterio y la nobleza, de amplia y excesiva ambigüedad, el color más raro en el reino natural. El amarillo de las mejillas de los pingüinos emperador y de los celos en cualquier historia y geografía. Y el rojo del crepúsculo, de la sangre, de la capa en las corridas de toros y de los vestidos de novia chinos. Este libro singularísimo, extraordinario, propone un recorrido cultural fascinante por la dimensión artística, literaria, lingüística, botánica, cinematográfica, estética, religiosa, científica, culinaria y hasta emocional de cada color primario. La gran riqueza léxica y flexibilidad sintáctica, la perfección para armonizar la abstracción y el detalle y encontrar destellos, matices, leyendas, hallazgos de toda clase que se precipitan sobre nosotros en cascada, hacen de estos tres ensayos una imprevisible y gratificante teoría del conocimiento. Después de leer Los colores primarios, en admirable versión de Ariel Dilon, a nadie le pasará inadvertido que Alexander Theroux es uno de los grandes maestros de la lengua inglesa actual.

Download or read book Form and perception in visual poetry written by Laura López-Fernández and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: FORM and PERCEPTION IN VISUAL POETRY one of the first serious monographs in English that explores what is defined as Visual Poetry. This intermediate genre has its own characteristics. It demands inclusion of a number of disciplines: philosophy, psychology, neurobiology, literature, painting and graphic design, etc. As with many an emergent area of study an interdisciplinary approach takes into account new perspectives of analysis while maintaining respect for traditional methods of approach to poetry. This work discusses the increasing techno-visual elements of poetry creation and by studying the possible mechanisms of perceptions helps the reader/researcher understand the complex artistic and cultural paradigm thus presented. Material is developed that helps the "reading" and "decoding" process stimulated by an unusual combination of elements in poetic discourse and example. There is research work on the semantics of verbal and visual images, color and form. General Gestalt Theory is employed in discussions of form, rhythm, representation, projection and interpretation. A number of poems and poets are discussed from the Anglosphere as well as Spanish language traditions of Spain and Latin America.

Download or read book Realities and Relationships written by Kenneth J. Gergen and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2009-06-01 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recent attempts to challenge the primacy of reason--and its realization in foundationalist accounts of knowledge and cognitive formulations of human action--have focused on processes of discourse. Drawing from social and literary accounts of discourse, Kenneth Gergen considers these challenges to empiricism under the banner of "social construction." His aim is to outline the major elements of a social constructionist perspective, to illustrate its potential, and to initiate debate on the future of constructionist pursuits in the human sciences generally and psychology in particular.

Download or read book Applied Biomechatronics Using Mathematical Models written by Jorge Garza Ulloa and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2018-06-16 with total page 664 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Applied Biomechatronics Using Mathematical Models provides an appropriate methodology to detect and measure diseases and injuries relating to human kinematics and kinetics. It features mathematical models that, when applied to engineering principles and techniques in the medical field, can be used in assistive devices that work with bodily signals. The use of data in the kinematics and kinetics analysis of the human body, including musculoskeletal kinetics and joints and their relationship to the central nervous system (CNS) is covered, helping users understand how the complex network of symbiotic systems in the skeletal and muscular system work together to allow movement controlled by the CNS. With the use of appropriate electronic sensors at specific areas connected to bio-instruments, we can obtain enough information to create a mathematical model for assistive devices by analyzing the kinematics and kinetics of the human body. The mathematical models developed in this book can provide more effective devices for use in aiding and improving the function of the body in relation to a variety of injuries and diseases. - Focuses on the mathematical modeling of human kinematics and kinetics - Teaches users how to obtain faster results with these mathematical models - Includes a companion website with additional content that presents MATLAB examples
