Through material and historical ties, educational uses, and ownership histories, "This is no less curious" illustrates the flexible and evolving functions of objects at a teaching museum.
Chris Anderson, the curator of TED, said, "Design is not just about the function of objects, it's to reimagine the future".
And if that repurposing makes it seem a bit inauthentic, we are reminded that Webb toyed with the functions of objects, turning vases into lamps, bandbox linings into wallpaper.
Brighton Museum & Art Gallery: Subversive Design Runs: until 9 March Price: Concessions £4, Residents of Brighton and Hove £3 This exhibition explores the ways in which designers and makers of everyday objects have reacted to the world around them, playing with the form and function of objects to provoke and amuse.
In geometry, the convenient conventions (or definitions) are chosen as a function of objects (solid bodies, rays) which are not the objects of the geometry.
Not surprisingly, human psychology includes a powerful bias toward thoughts about the "purpose" or "function" of objects and behaviors what Kelemen and Rosset (2009) dub the "human function compunction".
Still, though successes in translation may be small, we know that the meaningful content of artifacts often account for peculiar distributions and frequencies that otherwise cannot be explained by the working utility (function) of objects.
It's complicated to see that kind of person placed in a world where reality is obscure, where the function of objects you have known your whole life are suddenly changed, and always changing.
(i) Synchronization mismatch discomfort threshold (in ms) as a function of object velocity (motion).
synchronization mismatch acuity threshold as a function of object velocity, synchronization mismatch acuity threshold as a function of occlusion (gap width).
The experiments are used to obtain synchronization mismatch acuity threshold as a function of object velocity and as a function of occlusion or gap width.
