现代标志设计教学与传统图形艺术的结合研究

现代标志设计绝大多数是单纯学习西方式的设计思路,这种标志设计缺乏自身的文化内涵,容易出现千篇一律的情况。因此,在现代标志设计教学中应加入传统图形艺术的内容,引导学生设计出既具有民族个性,又具现代感和国际性的标志,实现标志设计的创新,提高学生的设计能力。     

浅谈如何激发学生学习语文的兴趣

语文课程应是工具性与文学性并重,既不能因考试指挥棒而片面强调它的工具性,也不能脱离文化工具这一特性,不顾学生水平大搞文学鉴赏.二者要想兼顾就必须在教学过程中寻求一条连接纽带,即激发学生的兴趣.文章从实践的角度,从培养学生的"有意注意",讲究课堂艺术,恰当运用课堂提问,开展语文课外活动几个方面,提出了激发学生学习语文兴趣的一些要求和基本方法.

Disquiet in the plasma

The metaphor of plasma is taken up to present and discuss movement and engagement by participants in mixed reality installation arts. Two works involving full body video portraits exhibited through large plasma screens in a variety of public settings are covered. Machinic mediations of video realism are considered in terms of embodied interaction in which viewer-participants contribute to the ‘disquiet’ of gendered figuring. Processural, proximal and personal aspects of responsive engagement are discussed. This is extended to performativity that may lead us to critical reflection of our own actions and responses in mixed reality arts.     

Virtual reality in Africa – for Africa

Applications for education and training and applications that preserve and promote African culture are particularly highlighted.     

Twenty years of artificial life art

This essay begins with discussion of four relatively recent works which are representative of major themes and preoccupations in Artificial Life Art: ‘Propagaciones’ by Leo Nuñez; ‘Sniff’ by Karolina Sobecka and Jim George; ‘Universal Whistling Machine’ by Marc Boehlen; and ‘Performative Ecologies’ by Ruari Glynn. This essay is an attempt to contextualise these works by providing an overview of the history and forms of Artificial Life Art as it has developed over two decades, along with some background in the ideas of the Artificial Life movement of the late 1980s and 1990s.1 A more extensive study of the theoretical history of Artificial Life can be found in my paper ‘Artificial Life Art—A Primer’, in the Proceedings of DAC09 and also at http://www.ace.uci.edu/Penny. Excerpts from that essay are included here.      

VALENCE: affective visualisation using EEG

VALENCE is an interactive visualisation controlled by live brainwave monitoring. We used a wireless EEG headset to monitor the player's alpha waves (an indicator of relaxation) and valence (an indicator of emotion or arousal). The game world is an emergent system of attractive and repulsive forces responding to EEG input.
