Re: 4.Aesthetic Primitives of Images for Visualization

The article by Gabriele Peters is a typical example of how the scientific and engineering world writes papers. This approach seemed alien to me at first in comparison to art or academic reviews, but I like it now as I have become familiar with its standardized form. The article discusses six dimens...
