Spotlight Titles for Art Appreciation Month

By IGI Global on Aug 4, 2014
Computational Solutions for Knowledge, Art, and Entertainment: Information Exchange Beyond Text August has been commemorated as Art Appreciation Month, and in observance of this event, IGI Global would like to draw attention to a few premier reference sources in their vast collection of research.

Computational Solutions for Knowledge, Art, and Entertainment: Information Exchange Beyond Text written by Anna Ursyn of the University of Northern Colorado, USA, focuses on the methods of depicting knowledge-based concepts in order to assert power beyond a visual explanation of scientific and computational notions. This book combines formal descriptions with graphical presentations and encourages readers to interact by creating visual solutions for science-related concepts and presenting data. This reference is essential for researchers, computer scientists, and academics focusing on the integration of science, technology, computing, art, and mathematics for visual problem solving.

One of Professor Ursyn's other recent titles, Perceptions of Knowledge Visualization: Explaining Concepts through Meaningful Images, explores a parallel field, discussing issues related to visualization of scientific concepts, picturing processes and products, as well as the role of computing in the advancement of visual literacy skills. By connecting theory with practice, this book gives researchers, computer scientists, and academics an active experience which enhances the perception and the role of computer graphics.

Learn more about Professor Ursyn's work and research in the interview 20/20 Thinking: Enhancing Visual Literacy.
