Gale Encyclopedia of US History: Gallatin ’s Report on Roads‚ Canals‚ Harbors‚ and Rivers At its beginning the United States was so deficient in avenues of transportation—with roads in some areas practically impassable several months of the year—that political disintegration was gravely feared. So insistent were the demands for improvement that‚ acting on a Senate resolution of 1807‚ Secretary of the Treasury Albert Gallatin prepared an analysis and program‚ presented in 1808. He urged the national

Escher Assignment M.C. Escher was a Dutch artist from the 20th century who spent his life on woodcut printing. Escher made many woodcuts throughout his career but his pieces Metamorphosis l-lll and Day and Night both symbolize change and how society is made. Both of Escher’s pieces showed conformity and individuality in them. The art pieces Day and Night and Metamorphosis l-lll both are alike and different in many ways involving technique and the main concept of the pieces. Day and Night and Metamorphosis

He inspired Albrecht to add to a more geometric appealing and an arthmatic feeling to his work. The painting Albrecht is most famous for‚ his self-portrait was done in a proportionally geometric way. These years were highly productive for him. As he started to become more and more well known in Europe‚ he coined his famous monogram to protect his work from being counterfeited. Adding geometric aspects to his artwork drove him to write two series of theoretical works

Escher: Balancing Chaos and Order before it was Popular Maurits Corniel Escher was a magnificent artist who used symmetry and distortion to create mind-bending masterpieces. He was an artist before his time. Escher was not popular until the end of his life‚ and became famous after his death‚ as many artists do. He was fascinated by nature and the balances found in nature. He believed that everything was a form of controlled chaos; a world of checks

and Synthetic Cubism. Also the artists who invented Cubism and those artists are Pablo Picasso and Georges Braque. Analytic Cubism fragmented objects into abstract geometric forms. Good examples of Analytic Cubism are Braque’s‚ Violin and Picher and Picasso’s‚ Head of a Woman. In Braque painting it is obvious to see a geometric exploration of three-dimensional space by the combining bold strokes of color. He did this by using dark greens and browns. Braque makes his edges crisp in the individual

10.1037/0097-7403.33.3.191 Learning About Environmental Geometry: An Associative Model Noam Y. Miller and Sara J. Shettleworth University of Toronto K. Cheng (1986) suggested that learning the geometry of enclosing surfaces takes place in a geometric module blind to other spatial information. Failures to find blocking or overshadowing of geometry learning by features near a goal seem consistent with this view. The authors present an operant model in which learning spatial features competes with

Thales of Miletus (ca 624 - 546 BC) Greek domain Thales was the Chief of the Seven Sages of ancient Greece‚ and has been called the "Father of Science‚" the "Founder of Abstract Geometry‚" and the "First Philosopher." Thales is believed to have studied mathematics under Egyptians‚ who in turn were aware of much older mathematics from Mesopotamia. Thales may have invented the notion of compass-and-straightedge construction. Several fundamental theorems about triangles are attributed to Thales‚ including
