  • Catoptric Anamorphosis on Free-Form Reflective Surfaces Francesco Di Paola, Pietro Pedone
    7 / 2020 Catoptric Anamorphosis on Free-Form Reflective Surfaces Francesco Di Paola, Pietro Pedone Abstract The study focuses on the definition of a geometric methodology for the use of catoptric anamorphosis in contemporary architecture. The particular projective phenomenon is illustrated, showing typological-geometric properties, responding to mechanisms of light re- flection. It is pointed out that previous experience, over the centuries, employed the technique, relegating its realisation exclusively to reflecting devices realised by simple geometries, on a small scale and almost exclusively for convex mirrors. Wanting to extend the use of the projective phenomenon and experiment with the expressive potential on reflective surfaces of a complex geometric free-form nature, traditional geometric methods limit the design and prior control of the results, thus causing the desired effect to fail. Therefore, a generalisable methodological process of implementation is proposed, defined through the use of algorithmic-parametric procedures, for the determination of deformed images, describing possible subsequent developments. Keywords: anamorphosis, science of representation, generative algorithm, free-form, design.

  • Möbius Bridges
    { Final version for JMA - Nov 2, 2017 } Möbius Bridges Carlo H. Séquin CS Division, University of California, Berkeley E-mail: [email protected] Abstract Key concepts and geometrical constraints are discussed that allow the construction of a usable bridge that is topological equivalent to a Möbius band. A multi-year search in publications and on the internet for real-world bridges that meet these requirements has not identified a single clean construction that warrants the designation “Möbius bridge,” but a few promising designs can be found. Several simple but practical designs are presented here. 1. Introduction July 2017 marks the twentieth installment of the annual Bridges conference [1], which elucidates the connections between mathematics and art, music, architecture, and many other cultural venues. This year the conference has been held in Waterloo, Canada. In its twenty-year history it has visited many places around the globe, including Seoul in South Korea, Coimbra in Portugal, Pécz in Hungary, and Leeuwarden in the Netherlands, the hometown of M.C. Escher. This conference series got started by Reza Sarhangi [2] at Southwestern College in Winfield, Kansas. After a few occurrences at this initial location, Reza Sarhangi and other core members of this conference started discussing the possibility of establishing some kind of a commemorative entity of the conference on the Winfield campus. Since Escher, Möbius, and Klein are among the heroes of this Math-Art community, suggestions included an Escher Garden, a Möbius Bridge, or a Klein Bottle House. This prompted me to study the feasibility of such entities; and over the following year, I developed some practical designs for bridges and buildings that follow the geometry of a Möbius band [3].

  • Bridges: a World Community for Mathematical Art
    Accepted manuscript for The Mathematical Intelligencer, ISSN: 0343-6993 (print version) ISSN: 1866-7414 (electronic version) The final publication is available at Springer via http://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s00283-016-9630-9 DOI 10.1007/s00283-016-9630-9 Bridges: A World Community for Mathematical Art Kristóf Fenyvesi Mathematical Art Reborn: Academic Gathering or Festival of the Arts? This is not the first time the Mathematical Communities column has featured the Bridges Organization: the 2005 conference1, in the breathtaking Canadian Rocky Mountains at Banff, was described in these pages by Doris Schattschneider [Schattschneider, 2006], a regular Bridges participant and Escher-specialist. The 2005 conference saw the debut of Delicious Rivers, Ellen Maddow’s play on the life of Robert Ammann, a postal worker who discovered a number of aperiodic tilings.2 Marjorie Senechal, The Mathematical Intelligencer’s current editor-in-chief, served as Maddow's consultant.3 A theatre premiér at a conference on mathematics? A production performed by mathematicians, moonlighting as actors? But this is Bridges. A quick look at the 2005 conference relays the “essence” of this scientific and artistic “happening” resembling a first-rate festival of the arts. True to its title, Renaissance Banff, the 2005 Bridges gave all members of its community, whether based in the sciences or the arts, the feeling that they had helped bring about a genuine rebirth. I use “community” in its most complete sense—including adults, children, artists, university professors, art lovers and local people—for the wealth of conference activities could only be accomplished through the participation of each and every individual present.

Some artists, such as Gerard Caris (1925), limit their oeuvre to a single theme. In his case, this is the pentagon. In the village of Zweins, this artist will be showing a selection of his work including his ‘Polyhedral Net Structure # 1’.

Available from: www.prosoc.eu Selection and peer review under responsibility of Prof. Dr. Ayse Cakır Ilhan, Ankara University, Turkey. ©2017 SciencePark Research, Organization & Counseling. All rights reserved. Abstract Alternative approaches in illustration language have constantly been developing in terms of material and technical aspects. Illustration languages also differ in terms of semantics and form. Differences in formal expressions for increasing the effect of the subject on the audience lead to diversity in the illustrations. M. C. Escher’s three-dimensional images to be perceived in a two-dimensional environment, together with mathematical and symmetry-oriented studies and the systematic formed by a numerical structure in its background, are associated with the notion of illustration in terms of fictional meaning. Istvan Orosz used the technique of anamorphosis and made it possible for people to see their perception abilities and visual perception sensitivities in different environments created by him. This study identifies new approaches and illustration languages based on the works of both artists, bringing an alternative proposition to illustration languages in terms of systematic sub-structure and fictional idea sketches.

It can be created using Graphic design techniques of perspective and using innovative print and precise design strategies. My first interest in anamorphic perspective was when producing an entry for the ‘Design Museum; 2014 Competition brief: Surprise.’[2] The theme of Surprise led me to discover the astonishment that viewers of anamorphic perspective art felt. Artists such as Jonty Hurwitz, joseph Egan and hunter Thomson; all of which are recognised for their modern approach to Anamorphosis, also created this amazement with their art.

  • Anamorphosis: Optical Games with Perspective’S Playful Parent
    Anamorphosis: Optical games with Perspective's Playful Parent Ant´onioAra´ujo∗ Abstract We explore conical anamorphosis in several variations and discuss its various constructions, both physical and diagrammatic. While exploring its playful aspect as a form of optical illusion, we argue against the prevalent perception of anamorphosis as a mere amusing derivative of perspective and defend the exact opposite view|that perspective is the derived concept, consisting of plane anamorphosis under arbitrary limitations and ad-hoc alterations. We show how to define vanishing points in the context of anamorphosis in a way that is valid for all anamorphs of the same set. We make brief observations regarding curvilinear perspectives, binocular anamorphoses, and color anamorphoses. Keywords: conical anamorphosis, optical illusion, perspective, curvilinear perspective, cyclorama, panorama, D¨urermachine, color anamorphosis. Introduction It is a common fallacy to assume that something playful is surely shallow. Conversely, a lack of playfulness is often taken for depth.

It plays parlour tricks! What a joker! It even has a rather awkward dictionary definition: Anamorphosis: A distorted projection or drawing which appears normal when viewed from a particular point or with a suitable mirror or lens.
