Intimate Distance: Negotiating The Urban/Suburban Divide, Whitney L. Sage
Intimate Distance: Negotiating The Urban/Suburban Divide, Whitney L. Sage
Mid-America College Art Association Conference 2012 Digital Publications
As a native of Farmington Hills, a suburb thirty minutes outside of Detroit, I have always had a peculiar relationship with the city. As a child I visited Detroit often for family outings to the DIA and Tiger Stadium. Hours later we would be driving on I-96 returning west. All of my early memories of Detroit are happy and warm, however they are seen through the rose-colored glass of wide cultural and geographic separation from the city. In this way, my artwork, which discusses Detroit’s past and present through literal representation, radiates nostalgia and expresses both a sense of intimacy …
Creating With Code: Critical Thinking And Digital Foundations, Brad Tober
Creating With Code: Critical Thinking And Digital Foundations, Brad Tober
Mid-America College Art Association Conference 2012 Digital Publications
While students are often attracted to opportunities to learn how to use software applications commonly employed by digital artists and designers, the fact remains that time spent on purely software-based instruction in the classroom is time that could arguably be better spent on exploring the broader conceptual issues of making digital work. This presentation begins to frame an argument for the comprehensive integration of code-based technologies, such as HTML, CSS, JavaScript, Processing/Java, openFrameworks/C++, and Objective-C, into digital art and design foundation curricula. This integration holds the potential to position code-based technologies as new media for teaching art and design alongside …
Temporalities And The Drawn Response To The Conservation And Restoration Of Paintings, Brian Fay
Temporalities And The Drawn Response To The Conservation And Restoration Of Paintings, Brian Fay
Other resources
This paper will consider the temporal implications for drawing in the light of conservation and restoration treatments to paintings by the Seventeenth Century Dutch painter Johannes Vermeer.
Using three critical frameworks: Norman Bryson’s becoming model for drawing and the relationship of liminality to a painting during conservation/restoration, George Didi Huberman’s anti-chronological reading of the detail and the pan in painting, and Walter Benjamin’s definitions of drawing the paper will seek to address some implications for a drawing practice that responds to a pre-existing museum artworks.
The paper will present some findings from my own drawing practice that responds to Vermeer’s …

Light, Data, And Public Participation, Dave Colangelo, Patricio Davila
Light, Data, And Public Participation, Dave Colangelo, Patricio Davila
School of Film Faculty Publications and Presentations
As practices in reactive architecture and locative media converge and urban screens and projection technologies proliferate we are becoming increasingly able to interact with data in public space. This confluence presents us with modes of digitally mediated participation in urban space that highlight bodily and architectural relationships with data rich environments as well as new sets of problems and possibilities regarding aesthetics, poetics, and politics. The article will analyze works by Alfredo Jaar, Krzysztof Wodiczko, and Rafael Lozano-Hemmer, as they respectively exemplify the efficacy of the key components of public data visualization: mapping, expanded presence through architecture, and the ‘incompleteness’ …

“East Meets West”: Symphony Television Production, Nathanael Hovee
Mahurin Honors College Capstone Experience/Thesis Projects
“East Meets West”: Symphony Television Production is a multi-camera broadcasting project covering WKU Symphony’s live performance titled “East Meets West” in Van Meter Hall on March 16, 2012. The project involved recording the WKU Symphony’s ninety-minute live performance using seven professional high-definition cameras throughout the auditorium and directing camera operators from the television control booth. The footage from each camera was synced in post-production and edited down for regional broadcast and distribution. The final video includes a majority of the pieces presented during the performance on March 16, as well as brief informative interviews with members of the WKU Symphony. …

Defining Industry Expectations And Misconceptions Of Art And Technology Co-Creativity, Vanessa C. Brasfield
Department of Computer Graphics Technology Degree Theses
The primary purpose of this study was to establish whether or not students and industry professionals share the same views about what students should be learning in animation education, what skills are necessary, and whether or not students graduating with a bachelor’s degree would be adequately prepared for an entry level position. To establish where misconceptions lie, surveys were issued to three groups: undergraduate students, post-graduate students, and industry professionals. These surveys were then analyzed using paired t-test for validation and question relevance, and ANOVA models to establish whether or not groups shared viewpoints. These data established significance within the …

The Praxis Of Horst Hoheisel: The Countermonument In An Expanded Field, Juan Felipe Hernandez
The Praxis Of Horst Hoheisel: The Countermonument In An Expanded Field, Juan Felipe Hernandez
Masters Theses 1911 - February 2014
This paper examines the work of German artist Horst Hoheisel in Latin-America. I open the conversation by including Hoheisel’s provocative participation in the 2005 memory debates in Buenos Aires, Argentina. Here, I introduce the nature of Hoheisel’s reasoning and the dialectical self-reflectiveness that is at work in his artifacts. In each project, I look for the way in which Hoheisel lays down the “memorialistic substance” of a specific site together with the self-critical rationality that characterizes his creation. The second part of this essay attempts to construct the theoretical parameters for the expansion of the definition of the countermonument. This …

The Relationship Between Two Dimensional And Three Dimensional Art, Erin Wheary
The Relationship Between Two Dimensional And Three Dimensional Art, Erin Wheary
Summer Research
I examined the relationship between the two dimensional and three dimensional art. I observed a relationship in content in the prints and sculptures of artists such as Joel Shapiro and Richard Serra. I wondered if I could create a similar relationship in my own practice. Additionally, I wondered how the art would change when I translated the formal elements or process from the two dimensional plane into a sculptural work, and visa versa.
Through an experimental process and extensive trial and error, I discovered how to create a relationship between the two dimensional and three dimensional. Moving from one medium …
Stitching As Knowing: Mapping Nebraska With Textiles And Thread, Elizabeth Ingraham
Stitching As Knowing: Mapping Nebraska With Textiles And Thread, Elizabeth Ingraham
School of Art, Art History, and Design: Faculty Publications and Creative Activity
Mapping Nebraska is a drawn, stitched and digitally imaged cartography of the state (physical, social, cultural, sociological) where I live. The interrelated components of this on-going project are:
- A 15 foot wide hand-drawn “Locator Map” of Nebraska, with every city, town, park, railroad, river, lake and creek drawn to scale on 95 Tyvek sections which were then stitched together.
- Terrain Squares, quilted and embroidered fabric relief forms of the physical topography of selected locations, using software to be able to see the terrain at a much larger scale (1 inch = 596 feet) than the Locator Map.
- Surveys, or on-the-ground …
Pencil Pushed: Exploring Process And Boundaries In Drawing (Exhibition Catalogue), Sam Yates, Creighton Michael, Barbara Macadam
Pencil Pushed: Exploring Process And Boundaries In Drawing (Exhibition Catalogue), Sam Yates, Creighton Michael, Barbara Macadam
Ewing Gallery of Art & Architecture
In Pencil Pushed, the word pencil functions simply as a metaphor or symbol for drawing and its activity. The selected artists are known for their drawing or drawing activity as their primary means of expression and have either pushed the material, process, or boundary of conventional drawing. Media included video, sculpture, animation, installation, and of course, works on paper. This exhibition is neither a survey nor the definitive grouping of mark-making artists. It is more a conversation about artists who have and continue to explore these regions in drawing.
Featured artists in Pencil Pushed are: William Anastasi, William Pittman Andrews, …

Articulations Of Irish Language Poetry As Multimodal Texts, Brenda Duggan
Articulations Of Irish Language Poetry As Multimodal Texts, Brenda Duggan
Conference Papers
Abstract
In October of last year, visual communication students at Technological University Dublin took part in an exhibition of Irish language literature texts that were imaginatively extended, exploring an array of new literacies. Taking the Irish language texts as a starting point for this project, students creatively explored print, visual, digital and material modes to extend the meaning of the poetry.
This paper explores, from a social semiotic perspective the creative potential this multimodal work offers design pedagogy in how we frame and articulate meaning across both print and digital media design education. With an emphasis on an ensemble of …
