A series of events
Vector Graphics.
The first time I learned how to boot up a computer was in elementary school and to my dis may it was a very un exciting moment. But, luckily we actually had computers in school and it was in the early eighties! So that was a really big thing for me growing up. towards the end of the class we were coloring pixels and making images. but, I said this is going to take forever knowing that if you color every single pixel by a numeric code then that will take infinity. so, I said to the teacher whom I forgot their name... I apologize, call some one!!! this is pathetic. I said to the person who came to the class a few days later that if you map the points or corners of a pixel and "Connect the dots" then you can make things like type and pictures. So they did.
B series of events
The Gradient
long time goes by and I eventually become a computer owner and start learning from experience. easy to see someone else's faults when you study from a far so to speak. first experience with Adobe software was home edition in the early 90ies. I spent tons of time on my dads computer manipulating pixels... some time goes by and I kept saving every thing as a jpeg and I was using illustrator and come to see that they were missing a step. how do artists make a shade I said when I got around to calling them one day. they said the shade? they said? then they go into deep talking about how to make a drop shadow that back then had no blur or transparency. long story short the mention of a pixel came up and two pixels that are actually one pixel of two different tones made for what we call the gradient. |
