Assignment
In
this
project
we
are
going
to
solve
a
geometric
problem.
Geometric
problems
are
important
for
many
applications
including
data

6. visualization,
geographic
information
systems,
integrated
circuits,
computer
graphics,
and
video
games.
If
boxes
are
"axis-­‐aligned,"
meaning
the
edges
are
parallel
to
the
x-­‐
and
y-­‐axes,
we
can
actually
figure
out
whether

7. or
not
they
intersect
with
some
very
simple
tests.
Write
a
program
that
prompts
the
user
to
enter
the
center
coordinates,
widths
and
heights
of
two
rectangles.
Your
program
should
draw
the

8. two
rectangles
to
the
screen.
If
the
rectangles
do
not
intersect,
they
should
be
colored
green.
If
they
do
overlap,
they
should
be
colored
red.
How
can
we
tell
if
the

9. two
rectangles
overlap?
There
is
a
simple
and
elegant
solution.
It
focuses
on
when
we
are
sure
that
there
is
no
overlap.
For
example,
what
can
we
say
about

10. the
right
edge
of
box
1
and
the
left
edge
of
box
2?
What
can
we
say
about
the
edges
now?

11. There
are
four
conditions
that
guarantee
that
we
have
no
overlap
(two
for
the
left
and
right
edges,
two
for
the
top
and
bottom
edges).

12. If
any
of
those
conditions
are
true,
that
means
we
do
not
have
an
intersection.
If
none
of
them
are
true,
it
means
we
have
an
intersection.
The
left

13. and
right
conditions
are
illustrated
above.
Go
ahead
and
draw
the
top
and
bottom
conditions.
I
recommend
you
work
in
small
steps
to
solve
this
problem:
• I
would

14. approach
the
problem
by
first
creating
variables
the
represent
the
centers,
widths,
and
heights
of
each
rectangle
and
then
assigning
these
variables
values
within
your
code.
• I
would
then
write
code

15. draw
these
rectangles
and
verify
that
each
rectangle
is
drawn
correctly.
• I
would
then
write
code
that
determines
the
position
of
each
edge
(top,
bottom,
left,
right)
of
each
rectangle.

16. • Next,
I
would
add
the
code
that
checks
to
see
if
the
rectangles
intersect
and
print
out
the
result
(“intersection”
or
“no
intersection”)
to
the
screen.
I
would
test
this
code
for

17. all
four
cases
in
which
the
rectangles
do
not
intersect
as
well
as
several
cases
in
which
they
do
intersect.
• I
would
then
color
the
rectangles
appropriately.
• Finally,
I
would
add
the

18. user
input.

History of Digital Art
Research Paper and Presentation

23. Topic Statement and Definition:
Your topic is related to the art work or thematic focus of your
paper. You should have a thesis statement
which more specifically tells the reader what you intend to do
or discuss in your paper. Your topic
should have been approved by me before you begin working on
the paper itself.
Description of Artwork/Artist Chosen for Paper:
Whether you deal with a theme or a specific art work, you
should describe it in detail and the reasons
for studying it. This is usually part of the introduction,
following from your initial statement and
paragraph about the overall focus of the paper.
Context and Analysis:
Context includes several things and varies depending on your
topic. In the case of an art historical or
humanities paper, the context may be material about the historic
period in question, the artist’s
background, previous approaches to analysis of your question,
interpretations of the work, and so on. It
should only be included if it helps to explain your subsequent
analysis of the art work. Your paper is an
in-depth study of a single work, the analysis is precisely that:
an analysis of the art work, from a formal
point of view (what it looks like, its composition, its style, its
visual characteristics) and from the point of
view of the interpretations you have chosen to focus on.
Significance and Conclusion:

24. Here you discuss the importance, meaning and value of the
particular artwork or thematic question
chosen for this paper. This is also where you should include
your own point of view which is either
related to these positions or rejects them for reasons related to
their failure as critical theories. This is
an important part of the paper precisely because it is where you
tell the reader what you, in contrast to
other people, think.
Writing Style and Organization:
• Grammar is correct; spelling is correct
• Paper is well-organized and understandable
• More than one source of information is used to arrive at a new
point of view
• Proper citations with footnotes and quotation marks, when
appropriate; very long quotations should
be summarized and given credit
Do not plagiarize! You are allowed to use the ideas of other
writers – if you give a citation. Putting it into
your own words is important and is more than just changing one
word. But you should avoid quoting
needlessly. Basic facts do not need to be quoted; neither do
descriptions. You can describe things with
your own words. If the description you read brought your
attention to something you hadn’t noticed,
then tell the reader that.

25. Format:
Paper should be 12 pt font, standard margins, double spaced. It
should be at least 5 pages total. Include
a title page and give your paper a title. Page length does not
include Title pages or Bibliography.
Pictures:
You are encouraged to include images in your paper, however,
these will not count against paper length.
Make sure your images are labeled appropriately.
Notes and Bibliography Examples:
You must include at least 4 Bibliographic sources in your paper.
Your textbook can count as 1 source.
Ideally, the remaining sources will be a mix of formats
(journals, books, websites, video). Use Wikipedia
as a resource, but DO NOT cite Wikipedia. Follow the citations
to find original articles, websites, etc.
The Chicago Manual Documentation style is described below.
You may use your textbook as one source
for your paper. Other sources can include academic articles, art
books, museum websites, etc. You may
use Wikipedia as a reference, however, do not cite Wikipedia by
itself. Refer to the link and citations in
the Wiki page for additional external sources.

book.

Presentation Guidelines:
• Presentations will be 6-8 minutes in length. You will discuss
the main points of your paper –
presenting the artist and artwork you chose to the class.
• Prepare a paper or notecards with your talking points
• Have a PowerPoint containing at least the artwork you’ll be
talking about. You may also include
other images such as photos of the artist, process or related
work. You may show related
content such as video however, make sure the clips are short
and be prepared to talk over them
if necessary. Be conscious of the time requirement. Do not use
video to explain your point for
you. This is your research topic so be prepared to present it
verbally.
• Practice your presentation and make sure you are staying
within the time limit.
• Be excited about your topic! If you’re excited, we will be
more interested in hearing about it.

28. Presentation Day:
Presentations will be selected in a random order so you need to
arrive to class each day during
Presentation Week ready to go since you do not know which day
you will be presenting. If you are called
to do your presentation and you are not present that day or are
not prepared to give your talk, you will
lose points. We will take a moment after each presentation for
the audience to ask questions.
Dates:
Wednesday, Oct 11th – Artwork and Artist chosen and
submitted via Blackboard
Friday, Oct 27th – Thesis Statement and Bibliography submitted
via Blackboard
Monday, Nov 20th – Open class period to receive help on
presentations; Final Papers Due by 5:00 pm via
