Computing Aesthetics Thinking Differently…

1. Computing AestheticsThinking Differently… Dereck Sonnenburg

2. Overview • Purpose of our Project • Modeling Examples • My Dynamic Source Model and Targets • My Static Source Model and Targets Recall: Architecture Theater 2-Dimensional • Ideas for Future Deliverables • Conclusion

3. Purpose of Project • To discover relationships Autumn -(is a) Color (Thank you Stephen) • Present these findings to others - New way of Learning

4. Modeling Examples • Dynamic Models Flowchart Finite-State Machine FSM Unified Modeling Language (UML) • Static Models Entity-Relationship DiagramER Diagram Object Role Modeling (ORM)

5. My Dynamic Model The Dynamic Model: FSM of a VCR

6. Architecture Target Model • Carnival Fun House • You can take a tour much like a museum • Elements within Fun House

7. Fun House Regression Slide Entertainment Form Functions / Features No Motion Regression Stairs Step Escalator Enjoyable Mirrors Pause Time Saving Resting Point Rewind Progression Frozen Moment Time Saver Fast Forward No Motion Rest Point Stop Development Functions Play Entertainment VCR Machine Architecture Semantic Mapping

12. Art Target Model • Impressionistic Painting as Genre • Impressionism • Colors Associated with Paintings • Example: William Glackens’ Mahone Bay • Mahone Bay

13. Mapping of Painting Play Mode Stop / Standby Mode VCR On VCR Off

14. My Static Model The Static Model: ER Diagram of Airline Tickets Owns AIRLINE Is Employed by transports flies PILOT Airplane Passenger Is a In command of Person

15. Architecture Target Model • Amusement Park Ride • Elements of Amusement Park • Motions and business similarities

18. Theater Target Model • Comedian Stand-Up Performance • Held in a Performing Center for the Arts • Example: Chris Rock • Bio Information

19. Person Venue Comedian Comedic Performance Funny Performance Jokes Audience Not Funny Pilot Pays for tickets Flight attendants Airplanes Patrons Satisfaction Employees Business Travel Airline Buy Tickets Customers Theater Semantic Mapping Funny

20. Theater Version of Model The Static Model: ER Diagram of Comedic Performance pays Allows Venue/Auditorium Is Employed by Entertains tells Comedian Performance Audience Is a In command of Person

21. Art Target Model • Surrealism / illusions • illusions • Example: MC Escher’s Waterfall • His Works

22. Mapping of Painting Airplane Flight Course Airline Customers

23. Future Deliverables • Create the 3-D Models Foam Board and Balsa Wood • Virtual Reality • Have a Tour of Architecture Models • Or Exploring Paintings

24. Conclusion • Purpose of our endeavor • Models and Understanding them • Project Deliverables • “Se non e vero, e ben trovato” Translation: “It may not be true, but it’s a great story.”
