The first three days were sponsored by NASA Ames Research Center. The fourth day was sponsored by the National Oceanic & Atmospheric Administration National Earth Satellite Service. Nearly 300 participants attended the conference, which featured more than 60 speakers. During four days of talks and panel discussions, remote sensing users from 14 Western states explained their diverse applications of Landsat data, exchanged problem solutions and dis- cussed operational goals. Attendees also focused their attention on proposed FY 82 federal budget reduc- tions for technology transfer activities, as well as the planned transition of the operational remote sensing system to NOAA's supervision. Several speakers stressed the need to continue the remote sensing applications programs, and for the United States to maintain its leadership in the development of operational systems. This publication contains the proceedings of the NASA sponsored first three days of the conference. The text of the proceedings was produced by Bendix Field Engineering Corporation from summaries supplied by the speakers and, in several instances, edited versions of recorded transcriptions.

Mascy (Conference Chairperson - Manager WRAP Information Services) Good Morning and welcome to the Second Western Regional Remote Sensing Conference. The first three days are sponsored by NASA Ames Research Center and the fourth day is sponsored by NOAA's National Earth Satellite Service. NASA's conference while designed to enhance users' awareness, will serve to establish a benchmark on current uses of Landsat data and a perspec- tive on new applications. Not only should it provide an opportunity for information exchange between users, but also it should provide a forum for user/industry communications. Topics scheduled to be covered during this period include remote sensing issues; implementation and institutional factors from both federal and state perspectives; industry in remote sensing; remote sensing applica- tions in forestry, agriculture, urban areas, range, wildlife habitat and general land use; updates on technology and future application developments and software/hardware selection and acquisition. In addition, a summary of one of the most comprehensive Landsat projects in the West, The Pacific Northwest Story,

Closer examination re veals that government played a major role in launching and sustain ing some of the region's core industries through military contracting. Focusing on leading firms in the microwave electronics, missile, satellite, and semiconductor industries, this article argues that de mand for customized military technology encouraged contractors to embark on a course of flexible specialization, batch production, and continuous innovation.

  • Northwest Impressionism, 1910-1935
    Hidden in Plain Sight: Northwest Impressionism, 1910-1935 John E. Impert A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Washington 2012 Reading Committee: Susan Casteras, Chair René Bravmann Douglas Collins Program authorized to Offer Degree: Art History University of Washington Abstract Hidden in Plain Sight: Northwest Impressionism, 1910-1935 John E. Impert Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Professor Susan Casteras Art History Northwest Impressionist artists are among the forgotten figures in American art history. Responsible for bringing Modernism to Washington and Oregon, they dominated the art communities in Seattle and Portland from about 1910 to 1928, remaining influential until the mid 1930’s. After describing the artists briefly, this dissertation summarizes and evaluates the slim historiography of Northwest Impressionism. Impressionism and Tonalism are contrasted in order to situate these artists within the broad currents of American art history. Six important artists who have not been studied in the past are each accorded a chapter that summarizes their educations, careers, and artistic developments. In Seattle, Paul Gustin, the early leader of the Seattle art community, was most closely associated with images of Mount Rainier. Edgar Forkner, a well established Indiana artist, moved to Seattle and painted numerous canvases of old boats at rest and still lifes of flowers. Dorothy Dolph Jensen, a latecomer, emphasized shoreline and harbor scenes in her work. In Portland, Charles McKim traded complete anonymity in Portland, Maine for the leadership of the Oregon art community, creating a variety of landscapes and seascapes. Clyde Keller produced an enormous output of landscapes over a long career that extended to California as well as Oregon.

The Animate Object Of Kinetic Art, 1955-1968 Abstract This dissertation examines the development of kinetic art—a genre comprising motorized, manipulable, and otherwise transformable objects—in Europe and the United States from 1955 to 1968. Despite kinetic art’s popularity in its moment, existing scholarly narratives often treat the movement as a positivist affirmation of postwar technology or an art of mere entertainment. This dissertation is the first comprehensive scholarly project to resituate the movement within the history of performance and “live” art forms, by looking closely at how artists created objects that behaved in complex, often unpredictable ways in real time. It argues that the critical debates concerning agency and intention that surrounded moving artworks should be understood within broader aesthetic and social concerns in the postwar period—from artists’ attempts to grapple with the legacy of modernist abstraction, to popular attitudes toward the rise of automated labor and cybernetics. It further draws from contemporaneous phenomenological discourses to consider the ways kinetic artworks modulated viewers’ experiences of artistic duration.
