Problem Set 2 -- Towards Literacy 2A Using the dot drawing technique described in Chapter 8 of the DBN book, manually position *exactly* 50 dots on your page that look as though they are randomly placed, but still form a cohesive recognizable image that is non-typographic and non-symbolic. |
||
Problem Set 4-- Surrealism, Contrast and Welding 4A Read RK pp. 105 to 146. Reinterpret one of your previous pieces as a surrealist image. Include the name of the previous assignment in your comments. |

Problem Set 4-- Surrealism, Contrast and Welding 4B Read DD pp. 67 to 103. Create a dynamic composition of two contrasting elements (i.e. color, shape quality, movement, etc.) Use comments to explain what you're contrasting. |
||
Problem Set 2 -- Towards Literacy 2C In Passages in Modern Sculpture (RK) read pp. 0-67. Using DBN, create an image in the cubist spirit of "The Guitar" (p. 51). You should use at least 5 'command' definitions. |

Problem Set 7 -- Color of Black 7B Create a generally smooth gradation of white to black, from left to right using only a 100 percent black pen. |
||
Problem Set 3 -- Visual Control 3A Visualize a geometric progression (GP) of your choice in a concrete manner that emphasizes the wide range of scales inherent to a GP. This is a simple exercise in Cartesian geometry that can look as mathy as you like, or not. |

Problem Set 3 -- Visual Control 3C Read RK pp. 67 to 102. Evoke the image of an 'egg' shape: smooth, round, yet not entirely symmetrical, using all the DBN knowledge you might have at your disposal. Think closely about how the surface of the egg should be textured and decorated. Establish a clear underlying concept of computation, which will be demonstrated by your cleanliness of code. |

Problem Set 9 -- Bigger is Better? 9A Your display is now 200 by 200. Emphasize the difference between your early 100 by 100 display area and the now larger 200 by 200 display area with a statically motivated graphic. |
