Chiaroscuro (, " light-dark ") in art is " an Italian term which literally means ' light-dark '.

As the Tate puts it: " Chiaroscuro is generally only remarked upon when it is a particularly prominent feature of the work, usually when the artist is using extreme contrasts of light and shade ".

Chiaroscuro is also used in cinematography to indicate extreme low-key lighting to create distinct areas of light and darkness in films, especially in black and white films.

Sfumato is one of the four canonical painting modes of the Renaissance ( the other three being Cangiante, Chiaroscuro, and Unione ).

The Chiaroscuro Reading Series is held the second Tuesday of each month at Augusta House.

He also composed Chiaroscuro &# 91 ; Listen here &# 93 ;, for two pianos tuned a quarter tone apart for The Dranoff International Two Piano Foundation.

Relocating to London, Robinson kept up his involvement with the theoretical side of photography, writing the influential essay Pictorial Effect in Photography, Being Hints on Composition and Chiaroscuro for Photographers, published in 1868.

In 1979 he founded the vocal ensemble Chiaroscuro for the performance of Italian baroque compositions.

She has also restaged Chiaroscuro and Touching Zulu for the company and more recently co-directed NQR ( Not Quite Right ) ( 2010 ) with Caroline Bowditch and Marc Brew.

Chiaroscuro woodcuts are old master prints in woodcut using two or more blocks printed in different colours ; not necessarily strongly contrasting light and dark.

Chiaroscuro woodcuts are old master prints in woodcut using two or more blocks printed in different colours ; they do not necessarily feature strong contrasts of light and dark.

In 1869 English photographer Henry Peach Robinson published a book entitled Pictorial Effect in Photography: Being Hints On Composition And Chiaroscuro For Photographers.

Chiaroscuro originated during the Renaissance as drawing on coloured paper, where the artist worked from the paper's base tone towards light using white gouache, and towards dark using ink, bodycolour or watercolour.

One performance has been documented on the CD release The Return of Mel Powell ( Chiaroscuro Records ).

He has led his own groups in performances and on record, with albums on the Chiaroscuro, WestWind, and Timescraper labels.

Since 2006, Payami re-established Payam Films Inc. in Toronto with his partner Charles Wachsberg and began development of several projects including an original story he wrote on Caravaggio titled “ Chiaroscuro ”, his adaptation of a Chingiz Aitmatov book titled “ The Eternal Day ”, “ Mina ” and “ Assassiyun ” which he co-wrote with Toronto writer Ian Carpenter.

The 2005 show was " Chiaroscuro: Symphonic Dances in Shades of Darkness and Light ," based on " Chiaroscuro ," a wind ensemble piece by Robert Sheldon.

Chiaroscuro as a major element in composition: painting

Chiaroscuro was often used to subtle effect in Byzantine art to depict spatial depth.

Therefore, four loose families of more-efficient light transport modelling techniques have emerged: rasterization, including scanline rendering, geometrically projects objects in the scene to an image plane, without advanced optical effects ; ray casting considers the scene as observed from a specific point-of-view, calculating the observed image based only on geometry and very basic optical laws of reflection intensity, and perhaps using Monte Carlo techniques to reduce artifacts ; and ray tracing is similar to ray casting, but employs more advanced optical simulation, and usually uses Monte Carlo techniques to obtain more realistic results at a speed that is often orders of magnitude slower.

A normal relational database however, is not efficient for business intelligence reports where dimensional modelling is prevalent.

Although several versions of many-worlds have been proposed since Hugh Everett's original work, they all contain one key idea: the equations of physics that model the time evolution of systems without embedded observers are sufficient for modelling systems which do contain observers ; in particular there is no observation-triggered wave function collapse which the Copenhagen interpretation proposes.

Images and other outputs of modelling are normally referred to as being " fractals " even if they do not have strictly fractal characteristics, such as when it is possible to zoom into a region of the fractal image that does not exhibit any fractal properties.

The field is largely focused on the modelling of derivatives, although other important subfields include insurance mathematics and quantitative portfolio problems.

Much of the development during the quantitative revolution is now apparent in the use of Geographic information systems ; the use of statistics, spatial modelling and positivist approaches is still important to many branches of human geography.

Falwell added " role modelling the gay lifestyle is damaging to the moral lives of children.

In his most recent book, " The Vanishing Face of Gaia ", he rejects scientific modelling that disagrees with the scientific findings that sea levels are rising faster, and Arctic ice is melting faster, than the models predict and he suggests that we may already be beyond the tipping point of terrestrial climate into a permanently hot state.

The process of developing a mathematical model is termed mathematical modelling.

From the point of view of material modelling, masonry is a special material of extreme mechanical properties ( with a very high ratio between strength in compression and in tension ), so that the applied loads do not diffuse as they do in elastic bodies, but tend to percolate along lines of high stiffness, see the figure on the right and watch a video for more details.

For applications where the solution is dependent on some data, the cost must necessarily be a function of the observations, otherwise we would not be modelling anything related to the data.

The resolved data is further processed in the visual cortex where some areas have specialised functions, for instance area V5 is involved in the modelling of motion and V4 in adding colour.

In CELP, the modelling is divided in two stages, a linear predictive stage that models the spectral envelope and code-book based model of the residual of the linear predictive model.

Wireframing is one of the method of geometric modelling system.

The Z notation (), named after Zermelo – Fraenkel set theory, is a formal specification language used for describing and modelling computing systems.

In terms of a database data integrity refers to the process of ensuring that a database remains an accurate reflection of the universe of discourse it is modelling or representing.

This is often conducted via modelling, using an over-abstract ( and sometimes graphical ) model of the actual system.

In sound synthesis, physical modelling synthesis refers to methods in which the waveform of the sound to be generated is computed by using a mathematical model, being a set of equations and algorithms to simulate a physical source of sound, usually a musical instrument.

Instead, the synthesized speech output is created using additive synthesis and an acoustic model ( physical modelling synthesis ).

Simulation is also used with scientific modelling of natural systems or human systems to gain insight into their functioning.

Karplus-Strong string synthesis is a method of physical modelling synthesis that loops a short waveform through a filtered delay line to simulate the sound of a hammered or plucked string or some types of percussion.
