The Design And Production Of Artifacts

The 20th century was a period of exploration, advances, and discovery in a revolutionary era. As science was evolving, art and architecture were too forming new ideas and styles. Quantum physics gave way to a new process of thinking. This mentality spread rapidly and went beyond the realm of physics and into the minds of various types of artists. Art movements that transpired include Cubism, Futurism, and Fauvism; eventually leading to Nonobjective art. Architecture modernization also becomes clear in observation of the International Style.

Architecture is more than a compilation of materials assembled to create a building. Rather, architecture is greater than the sum of its individual building components, it is a structural system (Hurrol 2015, Rappaport 2012). The quintessential elements of architecture – masses, frames and planes – provide limitless opportunities for the creation of form and the articulation of space (Eckler 2012). The assembly of the mass, frame and plane uses one of two antithetic construction orders; stereometrics and tectonics. Stereometric construction utilises “the repetitious piling up of heavyweight elements” (Frampton 1995, 5). Heavy, telluric and searching for light; the stereometric structure resembles a cave (Baeza 2009). In contrast, tectonic constructions

Magnetic resonance imaging is very powerful automated diagnostic method to detect abnormalities present inside the living system. But the results produced by magnetic resonance imaging process can be affected by various factors that can affect quality of image. These factors generate artifacts that can affect diagnostic quality. Artifacts can be classified into various types based on their source of origin. This paper focusses on some of the most common artifacts and methods and solutions by which these artifacts can be eliminated or negotiated to an acceptable range.

From videos about dogs doing cute acts to videos about terrorism in the Middle East, Youtube can either bring people together or tear them apart from many countries around the world. For my Digital Artifact Analysis Project I decided to pick a song that I personally love. The song is Closer by The Chainsmokers. With over 172 million views on Youtube, it is one of the most recognized songs of this year. This digital artifact would be classified as an entertainment video. While just appearing as a love song of a couple that grew apart, it has many different secret meanings and ways that people can perceive it. The most powerful line in the song to me is, “So baby pull me closer in the back seat of your Rover, that I know you can’t afford.” I

This artifact is an college essay on which I talked about a event/experiences that change me in some sort. Throughout the essay,you will perceive how an events that I went thought changed me in a positive way. I chose to write my essay on how my papa dying changed my life. A college essay is all about writing about something that is personal to you.

Throughout the semester thus far, this ethics class has discussed a few different texts and readings. From these readings, different ideas of form and what a thing truly is have arisen. When we read Plato, we discussed what his ideas of the forms were and that they were necessary in order to define what a thing truly is. After reading Phaedo by Plato and passages from The Republic, our class moved on to reading Book II of Physics by Aristotle. Similar to when we discussed Plato, with Aristotle we discussed his view of the forms and the purpose of having the forms. In this paper I will discuss Aristotle’s views on the forms and their roles that they play within our world. In Book II, chapter one of Physics Aristotle argues that nature is

The end of the twentieth century was marked by the unprecedented scale of construction, huge advances in science and technology: new advanced designs, building materials, construction technology and strategies.1 Along with that, architects have been disclosing the failure of the traditional aesthetic concepts in the art of postmodern architecture, which were based on the assumption that politics should no longer be connected with the disciplines of administration.2 Therefore, the consequence of this failure was enormous number of debates occurred during that time: whether to reject the modernity and to return to conservative values or to embrace "the imperatives of modern technology".3

The adoption of Schematic Developer Design: it is in this phase individuals think of when they imagine architectural design. There is a preparation of intricate sketches of every aspect of the building floor plan and design by experts. Preliminary sketches are made and developed into a detailed floor plan, elevations, and eventually 3-dimensional images of an almost, real life design. These phases created should be approved by the client in order to ensure project effectiveness and success (Burden, 2000).

Well, I definitely think you are seeing in terms of what people are designing on a formal sense, and I mean, the form of the building. So, when you see a lot of these designs, that are coming out of architectural school right now, a lot

we as human especially designers and artists use drawing and sketching to help us to generate ideas

The present period can be seen as the time of the digital revolution, described by boundless, simple to buy, and simple to utilize different digital gadgets that are getting littler and littler in size, progressively speedier, and have bigger capacity limits. We live in a world that is continually associated with the web which is

In my assignment, I will be looking at how the general use of certain software’s and digital technology has taken the world of architecture and Interior Design in another era. And how other articles and journals supports that view and don’t. At the moment, we are living in a world of advanced technology where everything is taught using digital technology, whether it be a mobile device, an iPad or a computer, in a preschool or third level facility. It shows that we are ingrained with it nowadays and even more with the future generation to come. The impact that it has on my chosen career, Architecture and Interior Design has gone on

Until the mid-nineteenth century, the common method of design did not change at all. Architects & Engineers used simple tools (pencils, tracing paper and ruler) to define their buildings. However, with advances in maths, computing, technology the design and the building materials changed and improved rapidly. (Yan and Damian, 2008). This is when the first hypothesis about how to improve the project management appeared. The initial studies of the construction industry date from the 1940s e.g. Simon, Emmerson in

As Keith Davis puts it in An American Century of Photography: From Dry-Plate to Digital, it is on the computer screen where "the components of these original photographs become completely fluid, open to endless alteration, deletion, and recombination" (318). The power of image manipulation and control afforded by the digital media has opened the door on a "dynamic visual universe that offers, those eager to meet the challenge, the potential and vitality of infinite design capabilities" (Ziegler and Greco, 5).

Automation of construction equipment characterized by artificial intelligence, able to implement very complex buildings, interact and carry out instructions from a distance, and installation of building components in precision and speed. Also, the automation of production blocks, standards and prefabrication of various building components may lead to convert the design of buildings into a process of selecting parts. These techniques have also led to reduced cost, the time of execution of major projects and energy efficiency. Figure17 shows the multi-functional building unit, used to raise and enter the components of prefabricated houses into a support structure. Although these standard components, but it will have a multi-variable distribution, to allow for maximum individual expression in interior design and decoration.
