Escher's Complex Objects: A Demonstration of Simplicity
[chapter]
1998
Visual Database Systems 4 (VDB4)
ESCHER is a visual database editor for the object-relational data model. Here, we describe the essential features of ESCHER and what is demonstrated at this conference with our prototype. ...
At the core of ESCHER's interaction paradigm is the notion of a finger. A finger is like a cursor and points to atomic or complex objects. ...
A porting to a Tcl GUI is under way. The finger paradigm has also been incorporated into the ABAPlWorkbench complex object editor of SAP AG Rl3 as part of a university-industry cooperation. ...

Automatic object extraction and reconstruction in active video
2008
Pattern Recognition
Moreover, since an active video sequence naturally contains multiple views of the object of interest, we demonstrate that these views can be combined to form a single 3D object regardless of whether the ...
A new method of video object extraction is proposed to automatically extract the object of interest from actively acquired videos. ...

Loxodromic Spirals in M. C. Escher's Sphere Surface
2014
Journal of Humanistic Mathematics
Escher's 1958 woodcut Sphere Surface is an image of black and white fish arranged along eight spiral paths on the surface of a sphere. ...
By connecting the plane and spherical models of the complex numbers, we show that Sphere Surface is the conformal image on the sphere of a tessellation of fish on the plane, and that the spirals running ...

Hermia and the Dark Lady: From Perceived Others to Potential Erotic Objects
2017
Linguaculture
The present paper is focused on the figures of the Dark Lady of the sonnets and Hermia from A Midsummer Night"s Dream as modes of writing against the Petrarchian ideal. ...
The ontological status of the Dark Lady and Hermia is also of interest, so that a linguistic and stylistic analysis is carried out in order to highlight how conflicting ideologies attempt to appropriate ...
In his understanding of love, Shakespeare is demonstrably a minority. ...

A DIDACTIC ITINERARY THROUGH MATHEMATICS, SCIENCE AND ART ON ESCHER'S PERIODIC DRAWINGS
2020
Gamtamokslinis ugdymas
In this analysis, a teaching experiment developed by the author in an Italian (Udine) high school of art is proposed. ...
The discovery of mathematical laws, that derive from crystallography, behind Escher's drawings should persuade students that such an artistry is reachable only by means of mathematical knowledge. ...
In spite of its simplicity, this idea can lead to remarkable artistic results, as you can see in Escher's Pegasus drawing ( Figure 12 ). ...

Drawing Hands. The Themes of Representation in Steinberg and Escher's Images
2017
Proceedings (MDPI)
Steinberg, with a closer look is possible to trace strong affinities between some of their works and many of the themes they handled, such as the drawing of metamorphoses, the figure-background relationship ...
In spite of a general mood difference between their respective graphic narrations, the work of the two authors appears to be based on the same kind of anxieties that have crossed the twentieth century, ...
Escher's image is a lithography, a complex print obtained by elaborating wisely the density of the pencils on the lithographic stone. ...

Tiling design patterns---a case study using the interpreter pattern
1997
Proceedings of the 12th ACM SIGPLAN conference on Object-oriented programming, systems, languages, and applications - OOPSLA '97
This is a fundamental reflexive relationship in pattern relationships. The process of assembling patterns by other patterns is named pattern tiling. ...
This paper explains how patterns can be used to describe the implementation of other patterns. It is demonstrated how certain design patterns can describe their own design. ...
Acknowledgments I thank Harold Ossher, Yuval Sherman, Ricardo Szmit, and the anonymous referees for'thoughtful comments on drafts of this paper. ...
