Description

Michael Leyton. The Structure of Paintings
Springer | 2006 | ISBN: 9783211357392 | 226 pages | PDF | 5 Mb | rar | RS.com

The book apply new foundations to several disciplines: human and computer vision, robotics, software engineering, musical composition, architecture, painting, linguistics, mechanical engineering, computer-aided design and modern physics. This is the first book whose purpose is to give a systematic elaboration of the laws of artistic composition.

Michael Leyton has developed new foundations for geometry in which shape is equivalent to memory storage. A principal argument of these foundations is that artworks are maximal memory stores. The theory of geometry is developed from Leyton's fundamental laws of memory storage, and this book shows that these laws determine the structure of paintings. Furthermore, the book demonstrates that the emotion expressed by a painting is actually the memory extracted by the laws. Therefore, the laws of memory storage allow the systematic and rigorous mapping not only of the compositional structure of a painting, but also of its emotional expression. The argument is supported by detailed analyses of paintings by Picasso, Raphael, Cezanne, Gauguin, Modigliani, Ingres, De Kooning, Memling, Balthus and Holbein.

This is the first in a series of books whose purpose is to give a systematic elaboration of the laws of artistic composition. We shall see that these laws enable us to build up a complete understanding of any painting – both its structure and meaning. The reason why it is possible to build up such an understanding is as follows. In a series of books and papers, we developed new foundations to geometry – foundations
that are very different from those that have been the basis of geometry for the last 3000 years.

The central proposal of this theory is:
SHAPE = MEMORY STORAGE.

That is: What we mean by shape is memory storage, and what we mean by memory storage is shape and we will see how these new foundations for geometry are directly the opposite of the foundations that have existed from Euclid to modern physics, including Einstein.

The books apply these new foundations to several disciplines: human and computer vision, robotics, software engineering, musical composition, architecture, painting, linguistics, mechanical engineering, computer-aided design and modern physics. The newfoundations unify these disciplines by showing that a result of these foundations is that geometry becomes equivalent to aesthetics. That is, the theory of aesthetics, given by the new foundations, unifies all scientific and artistic disciplines.
