It is a response to our students' requests for a "handout" and to l our colleagues' inquiries about the courses : Visual and Environmental Studies 175 (Introduction to Design Science), YES 176 (Synergetics, the Structure of Ordered Space), Studio Arts 125a (Design Science Workshop, Two-Dimension al), Studio Arts 125b (Design Science Workshop, Three-Dimensional),2 as well as my freshman seminars on Structure in Science and Art Mathematics Computer vision Visualization Logic, Symbolic and mathematical Mathematical physics Mathematical Logic and Foundations Applications of Mathematics Computer Imaging, Vision, Pattern Recognition and Graphics Signal, Image and Speech Processing Mathematical Methods in Physics Mathematik Mathematische Physik Goldener Schnitt (DE-588)4021529-5 gnd rswk-swf Proportion (DE-588)4137270-0 gnd rswk-swf Symmetrie (DE-588)4058724-1 gnd rswk-swf Mathematik (DE-588)4037944-9 gnd rswk-swf Visualisierung (DE-588)4188417-6 gnd rswk-swf Geometrie (DE-588)4020236-7 gnd rswk-swf Parkettierung (DE-588)4126296-7 gnd rswk-swf Design (DE-588)4011510-0 gnd rswk-swf Geometrie (DE-588)4020236-7 s Design (DE-588)4011510-0 s 1\p DE-604 Mathematik (DE-588)4037944-9 s Visualisierung (DE-588)4188417-6 s 2\p DE-604 Proportion (DE-588)4137270-0 s 3\p DE-604 Parkettierung (DE-588)4126296-7 s 4\p DE-604 Symmetrie (DE-588)4058724-1 s 5\p DE-604 Goldener Schnitt (DE-588)4021529-5 s 6\p DE-604 https://doi.org/10.1007/978-1-4612-0343-8 Verlag Volltext 1\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk 2\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk 3\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk 4\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk 5\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk 6\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk |
