Engineering a visual field.(Essay)
|
Abstract Of the branches of mathematics, geometry has, from the earliest Hellenic period been given a curious position that straddles empirical and exact science. Its standing as an empirical and approximate science stems frown the practical pursuits of artistic drafting land surveying and measuring in general. From the prominence of visual applications, such as figures and constructions in the twentieth century Einstein's General Theory of Relativity holds that the geometry of space-time is dependent upon physical quantities. On the other hand, earlier on in history, the symmetry ...
