Maths and Art

Well I haven't written very much on the subject and I need to for the upcoming essay and practical, so here's some more on the Maths and Art paper.

Quick overview first:

I have not enjoyed the maths lectures at all, though most of the art ones have been quite interesting, probably for two big reasons: I'm much more interesting in art than I am in Maths and also they're not as long : ). Ok, that was a 'very' quick overview...but not to worry, here's some more info...

Literature review:

I was a but late in starting the literature review - although I had done some research before hand so that was to my advantage, however I did get it done. The main trouble that I had with it was probably that I sort of started it again a couple times. I had an idea and started writing it, then I though it was wrong so I changed my idea and started writing it again and then I thought that was wrong so once again I restarted it. I did eventually settle on one idea though and managed to get it all finished.

After I handed it in I was really worried that I had done it completely wrong and that I wouldn't pass... The day we got them back I was really freaking out about it. Anyway, I was, and still am, thrilled about the mark that I got. Very, very happy : ). However, this does leave the practical and essay to come.

Essay and Practical:

As we are supposed to be documenting/talking about our essay and practical in order to show our though process I'll put in my abstract question to make it easier to follow. Here it is:

"The Mathematics Behind the Theory of Perspective and its Influence on Artistic Beauty"

As is necessary I've been doing some more research in order to help me with my essay and practical. I should hopefully be alright with writing the essay, but at the moment I'm pretty stuck with what to do for the practical. Hopefully I'll figure out something soon. I'll put up some photos of something that I think is relevant to this in the next post ... when I find my camera. : )
