Displaying Time

From the fluttering fabric of a tent, to the blurred motion of the potter’s wheel, to the rhythm of a horse puppet’s wooden hooves—these scenes make up a set of mid-1980s art exhibitions as part of the U.S. Festival of India. The festival was conceived at a meeting between Indira Gandhi and Ronald Reagan to strengthen relations between the two countries at a time of late Cold War tensions and global economic change, when America’s image of India was as a place of desperate poverty and spectacular fantasy. Displaying Time unpacks the intimate, small-scale durations of time at work in the gallery from the transformation of clay into ceramic to the one-on-one, personal encounters between museum visitors and artists. Using extensive archival research and interviews with artists, curators, diplomats, and visitors, Rebecca Brown analyzes a selection of museum shows that were part of the Festival of India to unfurl new exhibitionary modes: the time of transformation, of interruption, of potential and the future, as well as the contemporary and the now.

What time is it? In this course you will learn how important it is to guard the time. Administrators, as guardians of time synchronization will find many helpful commands to display, modify and set time.

Code and Methods for Creating High-Quality Data Graphics A data graphic is not only a static image, but it also tells a story about the data. It activates cognitive processes that are able to detect patterns and discover information not readily available with the raw data. This is particularly true for time series, spatial, and space-time datasets. Focusing on the exploration of data with visual methods, Displaying Time Series, Spatial, and Space-Time Data with R presents methods and R code for producing high-quality graphics of time series, spatial, and space-time data. Practical examples using real-world datasets help you understand how to apply the methods and code. The book illustrates how to display a dataset starting with an easy and direct approach and progressively adding improvements that involve more complexity. Each of the book’s three parts is devoted to different types of data. In each part, the chapters are grouped according to the various visualization methods or data characteristics. Web Resource Along with the main graphics from the text, the author’s website offers access to the datasets used in the examples as well as the full R code. This combination of freely available code and data enables you to practice with the methods and modify the code to suit your own needs.

An experimental study was made to assess the effectiveness of two techniques for rapid screening to select imagery frames of high military potential and to determine the effects of variations in display time on screening performance. Two samples of image interpreters, each consisting of three matched groups, screened three sets of imagery at three different display time intervals (5, 15, and 25 seconds per frame for Sample 1; 10, 20, and 30 seconds per frame for Sample 2). Each interpreter was instructed to perform two screening functions while scanning each print--(1) annotate on the frame all areas of military activity he detected; and (2) assign to each print a priority rating of High, Medium, or Low to indicate estimated intelligence value of the frame. Interpreter performance under the two methods was compared in terms of accuracy and validity of the annotations and priority ratings across the six screening time intervals. Results of the study definitely favored the priority ratings technique over annotation screening. The ratings, of high accuracy even with short viewing time, improved significantly both in accuracy and in validity with longer display time. Generally, performance was better on the measures which were less complex and showed fewer target areas. Validity of the number of annotations on a frame, generally low, did not vary significantly with display time. More incorrect as well as correct annotations were made, a finding similar to previous BESRL findings for unspeeded interpretation performance.

This is a report on the present "state of the art" in the development of a system for using electroluminescent indicators for digital display of timing information on motion picture film. It was found that a display, in the form of a matrix of dots, could be contact printed onto color film with an exposure time of one millisecond.

How does a visual artist manage to narrate a story, which has a sequential and therefore temporal progression, using a static medium consisting solely of spatial sign elements and, what is more, in a single image? This is the question on which this work is based, posed by its designer, Alberto Argenton, to whose memory it is dedicated. The first explanation usually given by scholars in the field is that the artist solves the problem by depicting the same character in a number of scenes, thus giving indirect evidence of events taking place at different times. This book shows that artists, in addition to the repetition of characters, devise other spatial perceptual-representational strategies for organising the episodes that constitute a story and, therefore, showing time. Resorting to the psychology of art of a Gestalt matrix, the book offers researchers, graduates, advanced undergraduates, and professionals a description of a large continuous pictorial narrative repertoire (1000 works) and an in-depth analysis of the perceptual-representational strategies employed by artists from the 6th to the 17th century in a group of 100 works narrating the story of Adam and Eve.

The squirrels at Mt. Mercy College are getting too friendly—they're frightening the students, making the nuns jumpy . . . and they're super messy. It's time to call the Animal Rescue Team! Meanwhile, Keisha's got a problem of her own. The Grand River Steppers jump rope team has a chance to win first place in their school district this year, but Keisha's so nervous, she keeps messing up! When she and Daddy go to the Veteran's Facility to check out their squirrel situation, Keisha meets Sergeant Pinkham, who's learning how to use his new prosthetic leg. Could Sarge be just the person to help Keisha stay calm, do well, and have fun at the competition? Perfect for independent readers, the Animal Rescue Team books offer adventurous and heartwarming stories with lots of laughs—and plenty of critters.
