Goals Knowing why one is searching helps determine what one needs to find. ` The question Why gives limits to How, When, Where and especially Who and What. Click Access When entering SUMS step one is to choose one of ten Goals. Click Goal Suppose we choose Goal=Everyday In the larger SUMS vision there are 10 goals: Everyday, Emergency, Business, Education, Environment, Government, Health, Legal, Leisure, Religion Click Everyday Click Guided Choice Step two is to choose the Strategy level. Suppose we choose Goal=Everyday and Strategy=Guided. In this case SUMS reverses the typical order of the six questions. Goal=Everyday corresponds to a first part of Why? To make this more precise SUMS asks Everyday with respect to what? What? Suppose we choose News Next the Guided version asks How: Internet born, Newspaper, TV? Click News SUMS 1. Sources 2.

Goals In the full-blown system the computer will “know” where it is and adjust accordingly. SUMS is like a Dewey decimal system using questions. Note that by limiting these choices to 10 at a time it can be used on mobile devices. In future a mobile device can also serve as a remote control for larger displays. The main part of this demo focuses on Goal 4: Education (and Learning) Clicking on this gives a list of topics: Perspective, Leonardo, New Media, E-Culture and New Methods. Clicking on Perspective we need to choose a Strategy. SUMS has 7 strategies. We are now in the introductory guided strategy. This has the same functions as the Direct Strategy except that it has guided text. Strategies 1 and 2 focus on a single term using the local database.

This initial screen leads to many more choices, which arise as one proceeds. Let us begin with Who. For instance, if we type the variant name Leo Noster we arrive at Leon Battista Alberti. Leo Noster Let’s type Leo Noster Then click Enter Leon Battista Alberti Leon Battista Alberti (1404 - 1472) Author Variants: Alberti, Leon Alberti, Leon Battisti Albertus noster Baptista[e] Leo Noster Alberti is best known for the first extant treatise on perspective, On Painting (De pictura, 1434), translated into Italian as Della pittura (1435). Seven Latin and two Italian manuscripts are known. Alberti also wrote Elementa picturae of which there are six extant manuscripts. Some authors (e.g. Bonucci) have attributed to Alberti the manuscript Della prospettiva (Florence, Biblioteca Riccardiana, n. 2110). Vagnetti (1979) mentioned a lost Trattato di prospettiva. Some of the literature has been biographical and has only touched on Alberti's technical writings. The first to do so was Vasari (1568) who mentioned that Alberti developed a perspective instrument in 1557. Loria (1895), Michel (1930, 162-163, 176-179), Galantic (1969). Gilbert (1943-1945) considered Alberti's theoretical stance and explored its models in Antiquity. Borsi (1975) provided a useful bibliography. Many recent articles have been general and will not be mentioned here. Much of the literature on Alberti's perspective relates to whether he used the legitimate construction or the distance point construction. Muratori's (1751) edition of an anonymous Life of L. B. Alberti, which was also one of the first serious attempts at a biography, mentioned Alberti's experiments with perspective boxes. Janitschek (1877, 231-232) in his edition of On Painting claimed that Alberti had known the distane point. Wiener (1884, I, 12) in his Textbook of descriptive geometry accepted this. The introductory screen for Alberti gives his dates and a survey of the literature on him. WHO: Leon Battista Alberti 1. Books 2. Literature Click Books BOOKS: Leon Battista Alberti 1. All Books 2.

Secondary Literature 5. Both 6. Earlier Bibliographies Leonardo da Vinci (1452 - 1519) Artist, Author Variants: Da Vinci, Leonardo Léonard de Vinci Lionardo da Vinci Vinci, Leonardo da Leonardo da Vinci was the author of various manuscripts with notes on perspective. Chief among those extant were the Manuscripts A, E, G (now Paris, c.1492), the Codice Atlantico (Milan) and the Trattato della pittura. Cellini in his Trattati dell'Orifieria referred to a manuscript which among other things contained "a discourse on perspective, the most beautiful which was ever found by anyone in the world". Comolli (1791,189-190) referred to a Libro delle ombre e dei lumi which is no longer extant. In terms of practice he is most famous for his Last Supper (Milan, Santa Maria delle Grazie, 1495-1497). Cited by Pélerin (1521, 1r) and Caporali (1536), mentioned by Vasari (II,156-158, 160, 163, 165, IV, 28), Danti (1583, preface), Lomazzo (1585,336, 100101; 1590, 17,52,149), Comolli (1791, 189-201) and Poudra (1864,I,126), modern study began with Jordan (1873), Ravaisson Mollien's edition of the manuscripts at the Institut de France (1891), Ludwig's edition of the Treatise on Painting (1882) and Richter's anthology (1883). Nielsen (1897) devoted a first monograph to Leonardo's perspective in the context of Raphael, Bramante and Giulio Romano. Mesnil (1922) emphasized scientific aspects of his perspective. Ivins (1938) drew attention to Leonardo's diagram for the legitimate construction. Bassoli (1938) drew attention to CA 35va and claimed that Leonardo had invented anamorphosis. The following year Bassoli (1939) drew attention to CA i bis va with its perspectival window. Clicking on his name we now have choices between Art and Books WHO: Leonardo da Vinci 1. Art 2.

Click Defenitions Linear Perspective Related keywords: Bird's Eye View Central Projection Colour Perspective Diminution Of Form Perspective One Point Perspective Perspective Linear perspective records effects of distance (inverse size/distance law) on objects as they appear on a transparent window (picture plane, plane of delineation), placed between these objects and the eye (point of sight). It is also called central, Renaissance, frontal, Brunelleschian or Albertian perspective. The viewer's position determines whether frog's eye or bird's eye perspective is involved. The position of the picture plane with respect to objects determines whether one point perspective, two point perspective or three point perspective is involved. Perspective is special because it invovles unified (homogeneous) spaces and one can work backwards (reversibility) in recreating the original space of objects. Clicking on Further Definitions uses OneFind to search 120 other dictionaries. Click Further Defenitions Let us begin with Who.
