This paper describes an artwork created in response to a question about the role of the artist in communicating climate change issues. The artwork, titled Turbulent World, incorporates turbulence and surprise as a means to visualize the potential instability of our culture and the environment due to climatic changes indicated by increased worldwide temperatures. The artwork makes use of a custo...

In this project we study and emulate the artwork of H. R. Giger with software. We hope to extend and emulate his style by creating programs which generate textures, bump-maps and objects which are similar to those in his artwork. The artwork of H. R. Giger consists of biomechanical landscapes filled industrial panels, circuit boards, fleshy tubes and organic monstrosities. Giger’s work can be s...

The purpose of this paper is to analyze the relation between the students’ desire to create beautiful artwork and the motivation to learn programming when the results of programming are works of art and the students are in the art and digital design faculty. The programming environment used in this study was Processing which can produce fine artwork with relatively simple codes. The programming...

Scan based or Line Sweep methods are a traditional mechanism to traverse the physical layout, or artwork of a microchip. These traversals are incremental in nature. They typically traverse the artwork from bottom to top (in the y direction) and from left to right (in the x direction) in a traditional Cartesian plane. As the traversal occurs, client applications need to know what causes a given ...

In (Nardelli 2010) we have proposed a classification of interactive digital artworks based on some of their more meaningful IT characteristics. An interactive digital artwork is any artwork where digital technology is an essential component and which is interactive. The definition of our classification convinced us of the importance not just to reflect on these themes as observers but also to e...

Artists value the ability to determine what parts of their composition is most appreciated by viewers. This information normally comes straight from viewers in the form of oral and written feedback; however, due to the lack of participation on the viewers part and because much of our visual understanding of artwork can be subconscious and difficult to express verbally, the value of this feedbac...

One of the necessary techniques for constructing a virtual museum is to digitize the artwork arranged inside a glass or acrylic display case without bringing the artwork out of the display case. By using photometric stereo, we estimate the shape (surface normal) and the reflectance (albedo) of the artwork arranged inside a transparent display case. If we illuminate the display case, the light w...
