Drawing on the right side of the brain
The document provides information about drawing and the two hemispheres of the brain. It discusses how:
- Drawing utilizes the right hemisphere of the brain and its abilities related to visual-spatial processing and intuition.
- The left hemisphere is verbal and analytic, and can interfere with drawing by trying to impose pre-existing symbols rather than observe details.
- A set of exercises are described to practice shifting between the hemispheres, such as drawing profiles and complex forms both normally and in reverse order to engage different modes of processing.
- The goal is to learn to access the right hemisphere's capabilities and "turn off" the interfering left hemisphere in order to learn to draw by truly observing spatial relationships rather than relying

Eye brain-gregory
This document provides an introduction to the psychology of seeing and perception. It discusses how the eye and brain work together to transform retinal images into perceptions of three-dimensional objects in the world. While the eye functions somewhat like a camera, the brain's role in perception goes far beyond merely processing images. The brain actively organizes sensory data to perceive objects, even when stimuli are ambiguous. It draws on past experiences and knowledge to interpret patterns of light. Understanding these perceptual processes can explain visual illusions and how the same retinal image can result in different perceptions of objects and their positions in space.

Rl gregory excerpt
This chapter discusses the history of theories about the nature of light. It describes how Christiaan Huygens and Isaac Newton debated whether light was a wave or particle. Experiments by Olaus Roemer in the late 1600s showed that light travels at a finite speed, settling the debate that light does not arrive instantaneously. The chapter also explains how refraction causes light to bend when passing from one medium to another, as described by Snell's law. Modern physics shows that light has properties of both particles and waves.
AICLE - MODERN ART
Here are the key points from the listening:
1. Some painters wanted to break the rules from the 19th century because the world was changing very fast politically, socially and scientifically and they felt art needed to change and create something new too.
2. Photography contributed to breaking the rules because it could capture realistic images, so realism in painting was no longer seen as challenging or innovative by some artists.
3. From this period onward, the subject of painting would not necessarily be realistic depictions of external reality, but could experiment with different styles, techniques and ways of expressing ideas, emotions and experiences.
story_telling_in_art
This document provides information and materials for a lesson on storytelling in Japanese and American art. The lesson introduces students to Japanese painted scrolls and American genre paintings.

The objectives are for students to be able to identify the cultures' artworks, determine defining characteristics, describe important parts for telling stories, and identify where each culture displays their art.
Optical Illusions By Saina
This document provides an overview of different types of optical illusions including:
- Facial/Ambiguous Illusions which show two figures that are difficult to see simultaneously
- Distortion Illusions which use patterns to make objects appear differently sized than they are
- Afterimages which cause continued images to appear after viewing something for 20-60 seconds
- Impossible Figures which use 2D images that appear 3D but cannot exist physically
- Color Illusions which trick the brain into perceiving colors incorrectly due to light and dark contrasts
The document explores the history of optical illusions and provides examples to illustrate different types. It also includes a bibliography citing sources used.
Presentación inglés
There are three main types of optical illusions: physiological illusions, which are caused by the structure and function of the visual system; literal illusions, which create images that differ from real objects; and cognitive illusions, which result from unconscious inferences made by the brain. Cognitive illusions can be ambiguous, distorted, paradoxical, or fictional hallucinations. Famous artists like Escher, Dalí, and Kitaoka have used optical illusions in their work to depict impossible objects or create a sense of motion.
Neuroaesthetics: Sciences embraces art
This presentation discusses neuroaesthetics, which is the study of the neural processes underlying human artistic behavior and experiences. It explores how insights from neuroscience can be applied to design. Specifically, it discusses how the brain perceives patterns and finds pleasure in processing them quickly and accurately. It also examines how the brain forms mental models from inherited and acquired concepts, and how design could better align with these mental models. Finally, it presents "cards" as an emerging design pattern that takes advantage of how the brain naturally works with information presented in that format. The presentation argues for a holistic, "micro-macro" perspective in design that considers both individual elements and the overall experience.

Interview salgado
Sebastião Salgado is one of the world's greatest living photographers. For his latest project, Genesis, he spent eight years photographing the Earth's remaining untouched areas across 32 countries. The black and white images in Genesis capture remote landscapes from the Galapagos Islands to Antarctica. Salgado hopes Genesis serves as both a "love letter to the Earth" showing nature's resilience, and an elegy for what has already been lost. At age 69, having found pleasure in traveling to create Genesis, Salgado feels ready to embark on new photographic projects, continuing to use his camera to explore the planet and document the human experience.
Genesis exhibition
Sebastiao Salgado's Genesis photography exhibition documents untouched areas of the Earth. The exhibition has toured the world to raise awareness about the fragility of nature and humanity's impact. Salgado discovered his passion and calling for photography early on when he realized he could freeze and capture moments in time. For his Genesis project, Salgado spent over 7 years traveling to remote locations to photograph landscapes, wildlife, and indigenous peoples before they are transformed by modern civilization, seeing the project as a love letter to the planet.

1. A study explored the effectiveness of different study strategies on long-term learning. Students who did extra practice sessions performed better on short-term tests, but this benefit disappeared after four weeks. It is better to space out study over time rather than mass all study into one session.
2. The study also found that longer breaks between study sessions, such as a month, led to better retention on tests months later than shorter breaks of just a few days or weeks. Students would be better served seeing the same material throughout the school year rather than different material each week.

- 1. Departament de Dibuix. IES Ramon Llull. Curs 2011/12 0 Initial Evaluation. Visual perception. The way we look, and see things around us it will be one of de first skills we'll study and think about during this year. There was a very special artist, M. Escher, who worked deeply in this matter. He thought that human perception (the way we understand the worl around us) it was one of the most interesting things of the human brain. It is very important to understand how and why our brain works. Look carefully at the pictures below, would you be able to tell which of the elements are in the background and which of them are in the foreground? Why?
- 2. Now, take a sheet of paper and divide it in four parts as is shown below. In each of the boxes you have to draw, as well as you can, one of the animals or persons that appear in the picture above. You have to draw carefully all the details you can observe. Two of the figures must be white and two black.
