Week 03 | Images

1. The translation of pixel data to vector data should reflect the abilities of the medium.

2. Example One: This example keeps a clear definition from WS02 through WS03, the lines are simple but direct. The edges from gray to black are defined with crossed lines. Again, this is just ONE example – specific to this condition. Find the conditions in your own "instance" to draw from.


3. Example Two: This shows the clarity of a set of rules generated by the student. These "rules" will help guide a graphic sensability. For instance, the example below has a series of horizontal lines that end the verticals were they hit black. Then connects those horizontals with verticals of varying thickness "stroke."


4. Example Three: This example shows the benefit of the underlayed "instance" image. Use the substructure for the vector drawing to guide your moves. Also while you're working, turn the underlay layer off and on to view the vector image as a solitary graphic.

Please post comments and questions on this blog so that your classmates can see my responses and generate a discussion on this weekly submission! Thanks.
