I’ve tried playing with those online tesseracts (or hypercubes) and am just gaining a very very slight understanding of why the fourth dimension is time. My question is, when one person at point A is looking at say a cube, moving through time and space to another point B, his perspective changes, and so does the way the cube looks. Doesn’t that make perspective another dimension? If not, why? And what is perspective’s place in the universe? Can you give me an idea of what things would look like (on earth) without perspective?
The cameras you talked about are at different positions (since there are more than one cameras, and the pictures taken have different perspective, and the cameras fired at the same time). But for one observer to change his/her/it’s perspective on one cube, he/she/it would have to move from point A to point B, which means travelling through time, and since whatever speed he takes to reach B, he would definitely take some time to reach B, he is travelling through time.
And also, can someone explain viewing objects of certain dimensions in different dimensiond,. For eg., perspective is basically 3D shown in 2D. Can anyone giveme another example of another dimensional pair like this?
You don’t have to move through time to change perspective. Imagine a cube surrounded by cameras, the cameras equidistant from the cube and a trigger. Trigger the cameras, get a person to go from the trigger to the camera and back retrieving the photo (one person for each camera). From the point of view of the trigger position, the cameras fired at the same time, but the photos will all be different because of perspective.
Perspective is simply a two dimensional representation of a 3 or higher D object. There are many 2D views (depending on where the viewing occurs) for 1 3D object. So perspective is actually subtracting a dimension, but doing it in different ways to get different perspectives.
When time is added to the dimensions, movement becomes possible so we can have a 3D view of a 4D object – same result – you get different perspectives depending on your velocity relative to the object you view.
It is not really possible to describe things without perspective, we are all viewers, so we all have perspectives.
“In drawing and painting, perspective is a method of creating the illusion of depth by means of converging lines. In simple terms that means that by taking and arranging your lines on a piece of paper, you can make your image appear as though it is three dimensional. Visualize standing at the side of the road. OK, good. Now visualize a car driving towards you way in the distance. As that car gets closer, you will see more of it … you will see the color of the car, the shape, the person driving it and so on. The same goes in a drawing. The farther away something is, the smaller and less detailed it is, the closer that something is, the more detailed it is. Whew. ”
This is taken from the Webb site below. It is about organizing a project for children about perspective and lists subjects to talk about. Check it out, it may give you ideas on what to write.
I am doing honors thesis on how time perspective can change people’s buying behavior. But I am having a hard time on thinking about possible manipulation of time perspective. Any suggestion of some cool things I can do to manipulate future and present time perspective? To make participants think about their future and present?
well I would first research how time is manipulated in Casinos.. they are designed to make you lose track of time.. thus more gambling. Perhaps you could stimulate that type of environment…
I am using the perspective feature in Illustrator CS5 to design the side of a building. I have an image that I need to place on the side of the building to look like a poster. I can’t seem to get the image (it’s a psd file) to attach to the perspective plane – even when I use the perspective select tool. In fact the perspective select tool won’t recognize the image at all.
What’s a good thesis for that? I am not going to use it directly, but I need a few ideas… I suggessted “Perspective is important to what we communicate and understand because it greatly influences how we think of and react towards other people.” But apparently that’s too broad.
any suggestions are very helpful. I’ve go to hand this essay in tomorrow!
Change “perspective” to “prejudice” and run with it. How was the community prejudiced about black men and crime? How were they prejudiced to favor white men with family history and high station? How were the children prejudiced about how they regarded Arthur? (Even though he had been beaten down by his own father into the condition in which he lived?) What do you suppose were the prejudices of the black community? Even today? How do these prejudices cause people to ignore what is in front of them, and to react instead to ideas that exists only inside their minds, often tainted by fears and paranoia?
What affect does the perspective of the novel have on the reader, and what is the purpose of using such a technique?
I am trying to write a topic sentence for my essay, I am beginning my paragraph on the different perspectives used by the two authors. I am comparing Disgrace and Tsotsi
Any thoughts / suggestions / ideas are appreciated!
anyway, i am thirteen and i just really got into reading again,
so i believe the “affect of the perspective on the reader”
is something that you would pick, and different readers can pick up differently, if you understand what i mean.
example:
“oh jonny, i love you so much why must you go out to war now?”
“because i must defend my country!”
i could say
“oh no he has to leave his wife, his loving caring wife!!!”
and some 1 else could say
“what a b13tch, she wont let her husband go fight a fucking war, wtf? ,bitch, as he says under his breath…
like that, now i mayhave interpreted your question incorrectly, but i hoped i helped.
and P.S.
you really are lucky you snagged that username, y didnt i think of that?…….
As I see that average americans feign Islam and hold Buddhism in high regards, I wonder what is their perspective of Hinduism besides caste, cow and curry. Do they know that it is the world’s oldest religion with no source or no scientific evidence on its origins?
Most Americans (and many Hindus) don’t even understand what Hinduism is. Even the textbooks generally misrepresent it (court cases are pending in the US over this). The same goes for the average American’s understanding of what Buddhism actually does as opposed to what it claims. Until more books like Erik Curren’s “Buddha’s not Smiling: Uncovering Corruption at the Heart of Tibetan Buddhism Today” are widely read, this will probably continue.
I need to draw a perspective drawing of my room, and I need to combine the two into one picture. I have no idea now to combine the two. Some examples or tips would really help
I have noticed a couple of disclosure statements on the internet.
stating brands / logos are:
1. ” the property of their perspective owners”
or
2. ” the property of their respective owners”
What is the difference? Is one more correct than the other? I have only heard the second statement being used – ever.
Debra L – Thank, this is exactly what I thought. Perspective makes no sense at all. I thought I missed some new business lingo / more current way of thinking.
The worst thing about the internet – having no writing standards.
Perspective means “point of view”, so obviously that is a non-sense phrase.
Respective is the definitive answer. It means the owner of each peice of property, etc.
Some might confuse perspective with prospective, which means possible. “The prospective buyer needed time to think before purchasing.”

can anyone define perspective or explain gerally what it is. i have to write an a4 page, and i only have a little infomation.

What am I missing here?
What perspective do you think the lessons from the documentary fog of war are? Realist, liberalist, or constructivist and why?
Check more on youtube
