Leonardo da Vinci Birthday Wishes - Birthday Comments
2008-04-15 07:42:00 Hi friends! If it is your birthday today, then you have a reason to celebrate and a reason to despair! First let me talk about the reason to celebrate. Its Fast Food Day - a day to eat ravenously and indulge yourself in all that junk food you have been avoiding to cut down the calories. Just forget the dietitian's chart and gorge on anything you want to have. It will also help you feel good on the day when you feel the most important - your birthday!The reason to despair is that it is Tax Day! I'm sure you have been waiting for the filing deadline!

6 Web Design Tips from Leonardo da Vinci
2008-04-07 12:53:00 Leonardo Da Vinci was one of the greatest artists of the Renaissance, leaving behind a legacy that continues to inspire artists, scientists and others. Here are six things we can learn from him about web design.One of the most remarkable things about Leonardo is his insatiable curiosity. Besides being a master painter, here are some of his other interests… * Botany * Music * Human and animal anatomy * Fluid dynamics (before there was a name for this branch of science) * Writing great poetry * Platonic philosophy * Designing remarkable inventions, including flying machines and a sort of pre-industrial tankMany of these interests show themselves in his artistic work. Anatomy is obvious, but have you ever compared the ringlets of hair in his paintings to his drawings of water flow? Or thought of how rhythm, which is so essential to music and poetry, also shows up in painting and drawing?The point is that being curious and learning about many things that are apparently unrelate...

Free ebook download 12 The Notebooks of Leonardo Da Vinci volum 1
2008-01-30 11:47:00 The Notebooks of Leonardo Da VinciVolume 1Translated by Jean Paul Richter1888PREFACE.A singular fatality has ruled the destiny of nearly all the mostfamous of Leonardo da Vinci's works. Two of the three most importantwere never completed, obstacles having arisen during his life-time,which obliged him to leave them unfinished; namely the SforzaMonument and the Wall-painting of the Battle of Anghiari, while thethird--the picture of the Last Supper at Milan--has sufferedirremediable injury from decay and the repeated restorations towhich it was recklessly subjected during the XVIIth and XVIIIthcenturies. Nevertheless, no other picture of the Renaissance hasbecome so wellknown and popular through copies of every description.Vasari says, and rightly, in his Life of Leonardo, "that he labouredmuch more by his word than in fact or by deed", and the biographerevidently had in his mind the numerous works in Manuscript whichhave been preserved to this day. To us, now, it seems almostinexplic...

Da Vinci y los símbolos ocultos
2007-12-09 22:39:00 Este fin de semana he empezado a leer el Código Da Vinci de Dan Brown y si hay algo que me resulta curioso es las innumerables referencias a la simbología oculta en la obra de Da Vinci. Como ejemplo el cuadro Madonna of the Rocks, realizado por encargo y que tuvo que ser repetido. Abajo una representación de las dos versiones de las cuales se habla en la novela.Pero además vía Mira y Calla he encontrado The Mirror una web en la que por medio de espejos muestran los símbolos ocultos en algunas de las obras del pintor. Merece la pena ser visto, para tratar de entender su obra un poquito mejor.

But this got me thinking on the topic of design for a living, spurred by a couple of recent rambles in the bloggiverse. Creative UI had a post on "Overcoming clients with bad taste?", where I've been discussing the reality versus what we wish for. And then a while back, on Reddit we were noshing on a debate about the design business spurred by a Craiglist rant. Bottom line: When it comes to freelance design work, I've discovered a rule that applies to 90% of the clients. The rule is this list of things that clients won't go for: original ideas innovation daring concepts new styles 'out-of-the-box' thinking ... and this list of what they will go for: Anything that copies what everybody else is doing. I debated on Reddit: People don't want a timeless masterpiece. They want crap. When I make crap in 30 minutes flat, it sells. When I work for two weeks...

Did Leonardo da Vinci fool history?
2007-03-19 04:11:00 Would Leonardo da Vinci have risked his life to fake the ultimate Christian relic, the Turin Shroud, if he was, as believed, so opposed to Christianity? What if it was discovered some of the artifacts that confirm your own personal beliefs weren't what you thought them to be? Would increasing arguments about fraudulent artifacts or associat-ed stories influence you-r specific faith? Lynn- Picknett and Clive Prince set out to investigate whether Da Vinci had the means, the motive and the opportunity, and whether the verdict on this Shroud would call into question the perceived authenticity of other historical relics.Consider that da Vinci's work on optics and alchemical pursuits provided him with the means, and he definitely had the opportunity. His unorthodox beliefs for his era gave him the necessary motive. His strength of character and rebellious streak would have enabled the sheer audacity required to pr... |
