The Interrelationship Of Graphic Design And Fine Art, Antoinette Monnier Jun 1995

The Interrelationship Of Graphic Design And Fine Art, Antoinette Monnier

Theses

The graphic designer is a visual communicator who transmits messages from a client to an audience. The message must be clear and free of the distracting presence of the designer, because a designer's personal biases and feelings are irrelevant to the client's message. However, work produced by some contemporary designers has challenged the notion of clear visual communication and problem-solving. It is self-expressive, ambiguous, and open to interpretation, taking on characteristics traditionally associated with fine art rather than graphic design. While the production and viewing of some graphic design is becoming a more private experience, the reverse is true in …


The Influence Of Format On Accessibility, Audrey Sumberg Jun 1995

The Influence Of Format On Accessibility, Audrey Sumberg

Theses

The initial idea for this thesis project stems from an interest in artists' books. Of particular interest is the way in which the physical format of the book can be an integral part of the artistic concept. Artists' books are books as art rather than books about artists or their work. As such, they exceed the boundaries of conventional expectations. They are about themselves, not simply passive vehicles for carrying information. The "reader" experiences an artist's book in much the same way the viewer experiences a painting, a sculpture, or a ceramic vase. The format for carrying information is as …

An Investigation Into The Development Of An Interactive Archival Catalog Of Art Within The Rochester Institute Of Technology, Jill Clayman Nov 1994

An Investigation Into The Development Of An Interactive Archival Catalog Of Art Within The Rochester Institute Of Technology, Jill Clayman

Theses

RIT has no complete visual and /or factual catalog of the pieces of art presently displayed in public areas. Many pieces of work on campus are in desperate need of repair as well as plaques to identify the work. Visions, the only known bound record of a selection of artwork on the Henrietta campus, was produced by the RIT Communications Office in 1975. The Archives in Wallace Memorial Library have a small collection of slides of various artworks, however, many works of art are currently missing. Several valuable pieces of work were lost in the move from the city campus …

Morphological Classification Of Noisy Shapes Via Exterior Granulometries, Yingchong Cheng Jul 1993

Morphological Classification Of Noisy Shapes Via Exterior Granulometries, Yingchong Cheng

Theses

Shape classification via linear granulometric moments is examined for patterns suffering varying degrees of edge noise. It is seen that recognition is quite poor even for modest amounts of noise and remains poor even when the patterns are first filtered by a close-open filter. Recognition accuracy is greatly improved, for both unfiltered and filtered images, by employing exterior granulometries. These are constructed by applying the various linear structuring-element sequences to the corresponding linear convex hulls of the noisy patterns. The resulting granulometric distributions are then not corrupted by noise-induced probability mass at the left of the pattern spectrum, thereby greatly …

Encountered Surfaces, Hyerim Choi Min May 1993

Encountered Surfaces, Hyerim Choi Min

Theses

Throughout the course of civilization man has sought to leave his marks in the form of designs. At first these were just crude scratches on stones or inscriptions on cave walls, but over the centuries he has developed many methods to his artistic sensibilities. Textile decoration is the branch of the creative arts that embraces any method of applying color or design to a woven fabric, and the maker of such decorated textiles has been an important element in cultural development down through the ages. He or she has provided man with a means of making manifest his aesthetic sentiments …

A Metaphysical And Linguistic Approach To Type Design And Typography, Ivan Terestschenko Rocha May 1993

A Metaphysical And Linguistic Approach To Type Design And Typography, Ivan Terestschenko Rocha

Theses

Significant changes have taken place in the type design as a result of what has often been termed "the desktop revolution." With the popularization and increased availability to the average person of typographic tools formerly available only to professionals type is slowly moving into the realm of personal communication. This move has sparked significant controversy among the various schools of typographic thought, but little consensus exists. As well, technological developments are contributing to a widening of the definition of what constitutes a typeface. This study, then, will examine the current views of type design as an art form and the …
