[source] COULD YOU TAKE A PICTURE OF MY BOAT, PLEASE?OXFORD JOURNAL OF ARCHAEOLOGY, Issue 4 2008THE USE AND SIGNIFICANCE OF MEDITERRANEAN SHIP REPRESENTATIONS Summary Representations of ships, sailors and seafarers are common in many ancient societies. They were carved, drawn or painted on a great variety of raw materials , stone, wood, metal, textiles and pottery , and can be found in settings such as caves, tombs or royal palaces. Their presence at these sites raises the possibility that these images of maritime life have symbolic or ritual connotations. This paper presents examples of representations of Phoenician and Punic ships from the first millennium BC, in an attempt to understand the role of both their creators and their audiences. These images are subsequently analysed in more detail, focusing on their technical features and their historical contexts. This paper concludes with a consideration of the social and religious aspects of ancient Mediterranean navigation. [source] A PICTURE OF JOB INSECURITY FACING BRITISH MENTHE ECONOMIC JOURNAL, Issue 476 2002Stephen Nickell This paper considers three aspects of the job insecurity facing British men in the last two decades. The probability of becojming unemployed, the costs of unemployment in terms of real wage losses and the probability that the continuously employed will experience substantial real wage losses. The first of these has not risen in the last two decades, the secojnd has risen by around 40% and the third has risen, particularly for the top skill groups. [source] II. VISUAL HABITUATION STUDIES: INFANTS' RESPONSES TO TYPICAL AND SCRAMBLED BODY PICTURESMONOGRAPHS OF THE SOCIETY FOR RESEARCH IN CHILD DEVELOPMENT, Issue 2 2004Article first published online: 12 AUG 200 First page of article [source] THOMAS DEMAND, JEFF WALL AND SHERRIE LEVINE: DEFORMING ,PICTURES'ART HISTORY, Issue 5 2009TAMARA TRODD What are we to make of the return of the ,picture' in photography after conceptual art? In this article I engage directly with the lineage provided by Jeff Wall for his own brand of ,pictorialist' photography, and his surprising appropriation of Sherrie Levine to this end. I suggest that Wall's gesture of appropriation and the structure of his own works reveal a more irrational sense of the ,picture' as a force of deformation which may usefully be extended to the work of Thomas Demand. I argue that Demand's work does not support the terms of modernist aesthetics, and in particular, cannot be credibly interpreted as founding photography as a ,medium', as Michael Fried has suggested. Instead I argue that Demand's work presents photography as parasitic and bound in an irrational relationship to sculpture. Neither medium is self-supporting and each is instead ,propped' on the other, forced to cohere by the deforming operations of the ,picture'. [source] Hierarchical Higher Order Face Cluster Radiosity for Global Illumination Walkthroughs of Complex Non-Diffuse EnvironmentsCOMPUTER GRAPHICS FORUM, Issue 3 2003Enrico Gobbetti We present an algorithm for simulating global illumination in scenes composed of highly tessellated objects withdiffuse or moderately glossy reflectance. The solution method is a higher order extension of the face cluster radiositytechnique. It combines face clustering, multiresolution visibility, vector radiosity, and higher order baseswith a modified progressive shooting iteration to rapidly produce visually continuous solutions with limited memoryrequirements. The output of the method is a vector irradiance map that partitions input models into areaswhere global illumination is well approximated using the selected basis. The programming capabilities of moderncommodity graphics architectures are exploited to render illuminated models directly from the vector irradiancemap, exploiting hardware acceleration for approximating view dependent illumination during interactive walkthroughs.Using this algorithm, visually compelling global illumination solutions for scenes of over one millioninput polygons can be computed in minutes and examined interactively on common graphics personal computers. Categories and Subject Descriptors (according to ACM CCS): I.3.3 [Computer Graphics]: Picture and Image Generation; I.3.7 [Computer Graphics]: Three-Dimensional Graphics and Realism. [source] Tour Into the Picture using a Vanishing Line and its Extension to Panoramic ImagesCOMPUTER GRAPHICS FORUM, Issue 3 2001Hyung Woo Kang Tour into the picture (TIP) proposed by Horry et al.13 is a method for generating a sequence of walk-through images from a single reference picture (or image). By navigating a 3D scene model constructed from the picture, TIP produces convincing 3D effects. Assuming that the picture has one vanishing point, they proposed the scene modeling scheme called spidery mesh. However, this scheme has to go through major modification when the picture contains multiple vanishing points or does not have any well-defined vanishing point. Moreover, the spidery mesh is hard to generalize for other types of images such as panoramic images. In this paper, we propose a new scheme for TIP which is based on a single vanishing line instead of a vanishing point. Based on projective geometry, our scheme is simple and yet general enough to address the problems faced with the previous method. We also show that our scheme can be naturally extended to a panoramic image. [source] Thermodynamics of Hydrogen and Hydrogen-Helium Plasmas: Path Integral Monte Carlo Calculations and Chemical PictureCONTRIBUTIONS TO PLASMA PHYSICS, Issue 3-4 2005V. S. Filinov Abstract In this paper we study thermodynamic properties of hydrogen and hydrogen-helium mixtures with the help of the direct path integral Monte Carlo simulations. The results are compared with available theoretical and experimental methods based, in particular, on chemical picture. We investigate the effects of temperature ionization in low-density hydrogen plasma. We also present a number of calculated isotherms for hydrogenhelium mixture with the mass concentration of helium Y = 0.234 in the range from 104 K to 2 · 105 K. In the density region where a sharp conductivity rise have been observed experimentally the simulations give indications for one or two plasma phase transitions, in accordance with earlier theoretical predictions.
