Window of Visibility in the Display and Capture Process

In normal conditions, the Critical Flicker Frequency is usually 60Hz. But in some special conditions, such as low spatial frequency and high contrast between frames, these special conditions have high probability to occur in some TPVMbased applications. So it’s extremely important to verify if a visual signal with a combination of temporal and spatial frequency can be recognize by human eyes. Based on the research in the last paper ’ ’Window of Visibility’ inspired security lighting system’, this paper introduces the measuring method of WoV of humaneyes. In this paper we will measure critical flicker frequency in low spatial frequency and high contrast conditions, and we can witness a different conclusion from the normal conditions

Addressing Security and Architecture Through Proposing Innovative Conceptual Idea On Landed Housing Windows

Metal grill for housing windows that is fixed to the wall is commonly used in most of the residential houses in Malaysia. Due to high numbers of burglary cases reported across the country in a year, the feature seems desperately needed. However, the window grill creates a dispute, especially on the emergency exit, building façade, and opportunity to view surrounding outside. Through survey and input from the respondents, the purpose of the research is to propose an innovative idea on housing window that able to address both security and architecture aspects. Understanding behavior of typical housing residents, residents’ perception on window grill, and modus operandi of a burglar are important to ensure the innovation able to minimize the burglary ideation, without compromising the feature’s purpose as a housing window. Inspired by French windows of a traditional Malay kampong house, the design is improvised to correlate with the current context. In this research, the housing typology that is focused on is landed house, which may include bungalow, terrace, semi-detached, and townhouse

Material, Trace, Trauma: Notes on some Recent Acquisitions at the Canadian War Museum and the Legacy of the First World War

Recent acquisitions at the Canadian War Museum are considered in relation to the radical innovations of soldier-artists who endured the somatic conditions of the First World War trenches, privileging materiality and psychic reality over visual perception. Barbara Steinman and Norman Takeuchi bring the past into the present through the indexical presence of black and white photographic fragments and the emotive presentation of lost objects as signifiers of the desires of the absent. Scott Waters and Mary Kavanagh evoke dread and the contingency of death through anamorphic distortion and blinding luminosity. Like the suggestive surfaces of the Museum itself, these works unsettle us to make palpable the psychic toll of war
