Photosensitive plastic used to produce three-dimensional casting patterns

Patterns with small lettering and intricate designs are prepared by using two-dimensional artwork, photographic reduction and Dycril. Two-dimensional artwork and photographic processes replace conventional relief work. Artwork size is convenient and does not restrict lettering and design size in casting

Peningkatan Keterampilan Remaja Karang Taruna Pogot Baru Surabaya melalui Pelatihan Hand Lettering pada Totebag

Karang Taruna sebagai wadah kegiatan kepemudaan memiliki kontribusi yang cukup besar terhadap kegiatan pembangunan dan terbentuk atas dasar kesadaran dan keinginan bersama para generasi muda dengan pemerintah dan komponen masyarakat lainnya. Dalam upaya memberikan bekal keterampilan untuk berwirausaha terhadap generasi muda yang tergabung dalam Karang Taruna RT VIII RW VI Pogot Baru Kelurahan Tanah Kalikedinding, Kecamatan Kenjeran, Surabaya ini, tim PPM Jurusan Desain Universitas Negeri Surabaya menyelenggarakan kegiatan pelatihan Hand lettering pada totebag. Tujuannya adalah : Memberikan bekal dasar keterampilan Hand lettering bagi Karang Taruna Pogot Baru, Surabaya yang memiliki nilai ekonomis untuk menunjang kegiatan wirausaha. Metode yang diterapkan adalah: 1) presentasi berupa penjelasan materi mengenai tenik dasar hand lettering, 2) demonstrasi teknik pembuatan pada totebag, 3) praktek, dan 4) evaluasi. Hasil pelatihan menunjukkan keterampilan peserta cukup baik, mengingat pelatihan baru sekali diberikan, dan diharapkan ke depannya untuk lebih meningkatkan dan mengembangkan keterampilan dalam membuat serta mengaplikasikan Hand Lettering pada berbagai produk merchandise

Describing typeforms: a designer's response

The paper sets out an overview of a pragmatic research investigation initiated within a doctoral enquiry, and which continues to inform design practice and pedagogy. Located within the fields of typography and information design, and very much concerned with design history, enquiry emphasized exploration of alternative design research methodologies in the production of a design outcome loaded with pedagogical ambition. The issue being addressed within the investigation was the limited scope of existing typeface classificatory systems to adequately describe the diversity of forms represented within current type design practice and thus, recent acquisitions to an established teaching collection in London. Addressing this issue unexpectedly came to utilize the researcher’s own design practice as a methodology for managing emergent enquiry, and for organizing and generating new knowledge through the employment of visual information management methods. A primary outcome of the enquiry was a new framework for the description of typeforms. This new framework will be described in terms of its operation, divergence from existing models and potential for application

Subroutines GEORGE and DRASTC simplify operation of automatic digital plotter

FORTRAN language subroutines enable the production of a tape for a 360-30 tape unit that controls the CALCOMP 566 Digital Incremental Plotter. This provides the plotter with instructions for graphically displaying data points with the proper scaling of axes, numbering, lettering, and tic marking

Causal connectivity of evolved neural networks during behavior

To show how causal interactions in neural dynamics are modulated by behavior, it is valuable to analyze these interactions without perturbing or lesioning the neural mechanism. This paper proposes a method, based on a graph-theoretic extension of vector autoregressive modeling and 'Granger causality,' for characterizing causal interactions generated within intact neural mechanisms. This method, called 'causal connectivity analysis' is illustrated via model neural networks optimized for controlling target fixation in a simulated head-eye system, in which the structure of the environment can be experimentally varied. Causal connectivity analysis of this model yields novel insights into neural mechanisms underlying sensorimotor coordination. In contrast to networks supporting comparatively simple behavior, networks supporting rich adaptive behavior show a higher density of causal interactions, as well as a stronger causal flow from sensory inputs to motor outputs. They also show different arrangements of 'causal sources' and 'causal sinks': nodes that differentially affect, or are affected by, the remainder of the network. Finally, analysis of causal connectivity can predict the functional consequences of network lesions. These results suggest that causal connectivity analysis may have useful applications in the analysis of neural dynamics
