Whats Happening in the World of Arts

Paul Rand

Steven Heller has posted a free pdf of his rare book “Paul Rand: A Designer’s Words.” Edited along with Nathan Garland and Georgette Ballance, the thin volume was created to commemorate the April 1998 Paul Rand Symposium held at the School of Visual Arts in New York City.

Cinemetrics

Cinemetrics is about measuring and visualizing movie data, in order to reveal the characteristics of films and to create a visual “fingerprint” for them. Information such as the editing structure, color, speech or motion are extracted, analyzed and transformed into graphic representations so that movies can be seen as a whole and easily interpreted or compared side by side.
