ART AND THE COMPUTER
Art is no longer done only on paper using paint and other coloring materials. The new form of art created using the computer is called digital art. Digital Art is also considered real art because the same artistic skills are applied by the artist.
Creating Art With The Computer HISTORY OF DIGITAL ART In the early 1960 s, Desmond Paul Henry invented the Henry Drawing Machine from a converted World War ll bombsight computer. His work was shown in Reid Gallery in London 1962, after his machine generated art won him the privilege of a one-man exhibition.
In 1963, James Larsen of Sn Jose State University wrote a computer program based on artistic principles. This resulted in an early public showing of computer art in San Jose, California on May 6 1963. By the mid- 1960 s people involved in the creation of computer art were engineers and scientist because they had access to the only computing resources available at university scientific research ;abs.,
Adobe Systems, founded in 1982, developed the PostScript language and digital fonts, making drawing, painting, and image manipulation software popular. Adobe Illustrator, a vector drawing program based on the B zier curve introduced in 1987 and Adobe Photoshop, written by brothers Thomas and John Knoll in 1990, were developed for use on Macintosh computers and compiled for DOS/Windows platforms in 1993.
Computer Generated Visual Media Computers are used today for Desktop Publishing (magazines, Print media, etc) Graphic Design 2D ART This is emulating traditional art using computer software.
3D Graphics/3D Art (till and Animated) 3D graphics are created via the process of designing imagery from geometric shapes, polygons, or NURBS curve to create three-dimensional objects and scenes for use in various media such as film, television, print, rapid prototyping, games/stimulations, and special visual effets.
