[CSC] CSCTalk: Tuesday July 13th 4:30pm MC2066: Halftoning and Digital Art

Edgar Bering will be giving a talk tomorrow in MC2066 at 4:30pm.

Title: Halftoning and Digital Art

Abstract: Halftoning is the process of simulating a continuous tone image with small dots or regions of one colour. Halftoned images may be seen in older newspapers with a specled apperance, and to this day colour halftoning is used in printers to reproduce images. In this talk I will present various algorithmic approaches to halftoning, with an eye not toward exact image reproduction but non-photorealistic rendering and art. Included in the talk will be an introduction to digital paper cutting and a tutorial on how to use the CSC's paper cutter to render creations.
