Point and Line to Plane


Book Description

This famous work by a pioneer in the movement to free art from the bonds of tradition explores the role of the line, point, and other key elements of non-objective painting. 127 illustrations.




Point and Line


Book Description

Some pieces use generative schemes, portraits of mental shapes, which create meaning out of noise. In "Hours" and "Setting, the Table," Field uses indeterminate performance techniques to emphasize the categorical/conceptual nature of thought. Visually, each chapter is captivating, showing both the author's need for shapes and colors in her work, and her fascination with the contours of speech."--BOOK JACKET.




Concerning the Spiritual in Art


Book Description

Pioneering work by the great modernist painter, considered by many to be the father of abstract art and a leader in the movement to free art from traditional bonds. 12 illustrations.




Point • Line • Plane • Eternity : The journey from alone to finally home


Book Description

"Once there was as boy who lived on a point..." Thus begins a modern allegory that challenges our typical self-centered existence. Indeed, some people live on a point. It’s all about them. Some live on a line. They may actually care about the people they meet, but they never really leave their comfort zone. Most people live on a plane. They do their best in a flat, two-dimensional world, but deny what they know in their heart: “There’s more to this life than this life.” Point/Line/Plane/Eternity empowers readers to live with joy and purpose — still part of the finite world — while anticipating your forever home in heaven. In one sitting, you’ll finally understand what it means to be living on the threshold of eternity.

Marked Point Processes on the Real Line


Book Description

This book gives a self-contained introduction to the dynamic martingale approach to marked point processes (MPP). Based on the notion of a compensator, this approach gives a versatile tool for analyzing and describing the stochastic properties of an MPP. In particular, the authors discuss the relationship of an MPP to its compensator and particular classes of MPP are studied in great detail. The theory is applied to study properties of dependent marking and thinning, to prove results on absolute continuity of point process distributions, to establish sufficient conditions for stochastic ordering between point and jump processes, and to solve the filtering problem for certain classes of MPPs.
