Three Perceptual Tools for Seeing and Understanding Visualized Data

The visual system evolved and develops to process the scenes, faces, and objects of the natural world, but people adapt this powerful system to process data within an artificial world of visualizations. To extract patterns in data from these artificial displays, viewers appear to use at least three perceptual tools, including a tool that extracts global statistics, one that extracts shapes within the data, and one that produces sentence-like comparisons. A better understanding of the power, limits, and deployment of these tools would lead to better guidelines for designing effective data displays.

Virtual reality as an object and a tool of cognition: applied aspects

Projects developed with the use of virtual reality technologies provide a user’s immersion in an artificial world with the ability to act in it using special touch devices in real time. The design and architecture of virtual reality are new and in-demand professional competencies today. The work of a virtual architect is responsible: the virtual world can become for the user both an area where discoveries are made, and a space of psychological trauma. Therefore, the professional training of creators of digital worlds involves the active use of new educational technologies in the educational process, among which virtual reality technologies occupy a special place.

GOTTFRIED KELLER ABOUT HEINRICH HEINE (PHARMACIST OF CHAMOUNIX)

The article gives an idea of ambivalent relation of Swizz writer Gottfried Keller to Heinrich Heine as person and poet. The object of the analyzes is Keller’s big poem “Der Apotheker von Chamounix”, containing both parody on the habits and features of Heine’s artificial world and respect to his person and sympathy for his suffering as well. The matter of satiric derisions is in Keller’s poem the last cycle of Heine’s ballades “Romancero”, whose poetic world gave G.Keller reasons for the parody against some features of Heine’s artificial world. Keller’s satiric poem is divided into two parts with different functions and unlike plots. In the first of them is presented the love triangle between inhabitants of a Swiss settlement Chamounix, everybody of which perished in an implausible death with following transition into the life beyond the grave. The main character of the second part of Keller’s poem are the poet H.Heine himself and figures of his dead literary teachers and opponents, whom Heine encounters during his visit in the paradise. In contradiction to Heine’s antagonists Platen and Börne, both great educators Goethe and Lessing show their sympathy to “Romancero”’s author. The poet Keller mocks over Heine as a figure and the author, but sympathizes with him as a great poet and estimated person. The second part of the poem is connected with the first one only by the figure of the girl Klara from Chamounix, who became in the second part free from her lover sins and left now her place in the purgatory for the “catholic” poet H.Heine.

Max Weber on Science, in the Context of Our Days Thinking

Max Weber analyzes the science of the Modern Period. The revolution in physics at the beginning of the 20th century, the creation of quantum mechanics bring to the fore another type of scientific thinking. It is important to note that past knowledge in this case is not refuted, not destroyed, it becomes marginal and enters into communication with its competitor. It is this type of communication with Weber’s philosophy of scientific thinking that helps us to understand its specificity. According to Weber, new knowledge is derived from the previous one, refuting its truth. On this basis, Weber writes that science is different from the art, where the created works retain their significance regardless of the time when they were created. For modern science the predecessor is necessary as another, without which not any communication is possible. Classical science, about which Weber writes, is necessary and continues to function. Satisfying the reemerging needs of society, it can detect previously hidden possibilities and, at the same time, encourage new scientific thinking to strengthen its position.The concept of revolution disappears gradually from the works on science. Instead, sociological concepts such as an innovation center or a technopark that combine simultaneously changes in the logic of knowledge and in the technical equipment of society are becoming popular. Logical and social characteristics of science are combined, the boundary between them becomes less noticeable. If in the era of classics the artificial world surrounding man was built on the basis of the laws of nature, now it is being created on the basis of the laws of thinking. For Weber, this world was silent and dead, this is what classical science testified to. Now the world around us is endowed with artificial intelligence, and we must be able to communicate with it. To understand Weber, it is necessary to establish contact with the world of classics, and not to try to destroy it and to declare it worthless.

CONCEPTUAL STUDY OF CORONA VIRUS DISEASE (COVID-19) IN RELATION WITH SANNIPATIK JWARA: AN AYURVEDIC PERSPECTIVE

In recent period of time Novel Corona virus has become the center point of attraction, due to it pandemic effect on the entire world. This pandemic disease has taken about a million of life and still its outbreak is continued. News reports have been addressing its origin in China by consumption of bats which were af-fected by Novel Corona virus (SARS-CoV2). Its spread in the entire world was a shock and the actual fact was unrevealed. Human beings live in an environment which is filled with various bacteria, fungus, virus and different types of animals since early life. But how this new bacteria or viruses get erupted, it is noth-ing but the effect of rapid modernization and urbanization. Since modernization and change in lifestyle of an individual is related to increase in demand of products which has forced the bar towards artificial world. Nature has been deteriorated for fulfilling the needs but still it is insufficient and in result natural energy /immunity is replaced by artificial. So human beings are more depended on artificial antibodies to safe-guard themselves when they are attacked by different viruses or bacteria. China is a classic example of ar-tificial food production and consumption state, so their people immunity is severely hampered, that result in the outbreak of virus. Similarly, this virus is affecting the entire world but still we have measures to fight this disease is by raising our immunity power. This can be done properly when we understand the disease in a better manner. Ayurveda is the natural science, which helps us to understand the disease and the measure to increase immunity accordingly.

Implementasi Metode Luther untuk Pengembangan Media Pengenalan Tata Surya Berbasis Virtual Reality

The purpose of virtual reality is to enable a motor and cognitive sensor activity ofsomeone in the artificial world created digitally to become imaginary, symbolic orsimulate certain aspects in the real world [1]. This technology is applied to the mediaintroduction of the solar system using the Luther method. The Luther Method consistsof 6 stages, namely Concept, Design, Material Collecting, Assembly, Testing, andDistribution. Luther method has advantages compared to other methods because thereare stages of material collecting which is an important stage in the development ofmultimedia and this Luther method can be done in parallel or can go back to theprevious stage [2]. At the Assembly stage the implementation uses the Unity Engineand Google VR SDK for Unity, the result is a virtual reality application that can displaythe solar system with 3-dimensional objects and an explanation is available on eachobject. While testing the blackbox on a variety of Android devices with differentspecifications. From the results of the application of the Luther method, it is verystructured and can run well in the development of multimedia applications, while theresults of testing, this Android-based virtual reality application cannot run on devicesthat do not have Gyroscope sensors and can run on devices with a minimumspecification of 1GB RAM will but the rendering process on 3D objects is slow.

KAJIAN RUANG SAKRAL BAGI MILENIAL DI DALAM KREMATORIUM

A very thick culture in Indonesian society is increasingly fading away by the milenial generation over time. One culture that is taken as an example is the culture of ancestral prayer, fading due to the absence of mediators to study the culture. The learning of ancestral prayer culture can be practiced directly in one of the sacred buildings, namely the crematorium and the columbarium. The purpose of this study was to examine the typology of crematorium spaces that match the behavior of the milenial generation and how to process the spatial atmosphere elements in the crematorium building. The research method used is collecting data from direct interviews, internet data and books, comparison of precedent studies and synthesis analysis. The crematorium was designed for the milenial by emphasizing a journey that will be carried out by the milenials. Space scale, space colors, light and dark spaces, and the atmosphere inside will create a sacred journey. This Journey is expected to be a reference where milenials can save a cultural experience by directly sensing the atmosphere and activities in each of their spaces that will create a separate memory for the milenials. The design presented will separate the 2 main programs, namely the sacred mass and the non-sacred mass that is connected with a link. The role of nature is also included as a combination of the artificial world and the natural world such as the earth where the sky is superimposed. AbstrakBudaya yang sangat kental di dalam masyarakat Indonesia semakin lama semakin memudar oleh generasi milenial seiring dengan berjalannya waktu. Salah satu budaya yang diambil sebagai contoh adalah budaya sembahyang leluhur, memudar dikarenakan tidak adanya mediator untuk mempelajari budaya tersebut. Pembelajaran budaya sembahyang leluhur dapat dipraktekan langsung di salah satu bangunan sakral, yaitu krematorium dan kolumbarium. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk meneliti tipologi ruang krematorium yang cocok dengan perilaku generasi milenial dan bagaimana cara mengolah unsur suasana keruangan di dalam bangunan krematorium. Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah pengumpulan data dari wawancara secara langsung, data internet dan buku, perbandingan studi preseden dan analisis sintesis. Krematorium ini dirancang untuk milenial dengan menekankan pada sebuah perjalanan yang akan dilakukan oleh para milenial. Permainan skala ruang, warna ruang, terang dan gelap ruang, dan suasana hiruk pikuk suasana di dalamnya akan menciptakan sebuah perjalanan sakral. Perjalanan ini diharapkan dapat menjadi acuan dimana para milenial dapat menyimpan sebuah pengalaman budaya dengan cara merasakan langsung suasana dan kegiatannya di setiap ruangnya yang akan menciptakan memory tersendiri bagi para milenial. Desain yang disajikan akan memisahkan 2 program utama yaitu massa sakral dan massa non-sakral yang dihubungkan dengan sebuah penghubung. Peran alam juga dimasukkan sebagai perpaduan antara dunia buatan dan dunia alam seperti bumi dimana dilapiskan oleh langit.

Pictures of Rural Education: images about the paths that lead to schools in Paraense Amazon

This article brings forward the discussions about the images about the paths that lead to Rural Schools in the Paraense Amazon. For such, the meanings constructed by children in early childhood education about the paths that are taken to school were analyzed. The theoretical foundation is based especially in Caldart (2004), Molina and Sá (2011) and Hage (2005). Methodologically, it presents a qualitative approach in the psychosocial field, in a dialectical movement that involves the objective and subjective world, as a constituent process of images and constructed meanings. For the analysis, the contexts surrounding the reality of Rural Education experienced by children from a municipality in the Amazon region of Pará were considered, as were the meanings that the children studied attribute to this path based on their drawings and the arguments that justify the images of the paths that lead to school. The revealed results the intersubjective dialectical movement, constituent and constructor of the reality of values that imprint a rupture of the dynamics between nature and the school's artificial world in the reality of the Paraense Amazon, highlighting the importance of considering the subjectivity of the rural subjects as a political act to propose their training and educational policies.
