found-object
(noun)
A natural object, or one manufactured for some other purpose, considered as part of a work of art.
Examples of found-object in the following topics:
-
Assemblage
- Assemblage is the practice of creating two-dimensional or three-dimensional artistic compositions by combining and manipulating found objects.
- Assemblage is an artistic process whereby two or three dimensional artistic compositions are created by combining found objects.
- Readymades were found-objects which Duchamp chose and presented as art.
- Unlike Duchamp's poor attempt to mask the urinal's true form, Nevelson took found-objects and by spray painting them she disguised them of their actual use or meaning.
- Rauschenberg picked up trash and found objects that interested him on the streets of New York City and brought these back to his studio where they could become integrated into his work.
-
Construction
- Construction is an artistic process that uses found, manufactured, or altered objects to build sculptural forms.
- Construction, also known as 'assemblage', and sometimes a 'combine', is an artistic process that uses found, manufactured or altered objects to build sculptural forms.
- All of these movements sought to distance themselves from more traditional processes and past emphasis on the human body, and moved instead towards the avant garde display of found objects as works of art.
- However, both Marcel Duchamp and Pablo Picasso had been working with found objects for many years prior to Dubuffet.
- The term 'found object' originates from the French objet trouvé.
-
Abstract Expressionist Sculpture
- Dan Flavin was an American minimalist famous for creating sculptural objects and installations from commercially available fluorescent light fixtures.
- His artistic trajectory took him from making found-object paintings littered with urban debris to plaster sculptures of everyday commercial and manufactured objects.
- These figures, often left with minimal color and detail and given a ghostly, hollow appearance, inhabited tableaux constructed of found objects such as a street corner, a bus, or a diner.
- Common practices seen in Pop-Art sculptural work include the display of found art objects, representation of consumer goods, the placing of typical non-art objects within a gallery setting and the abstraction of familiar objects.
- Claes Oldenburg produced oversized reproductions of familiar objects in increased sizes to abstract the subject matter.
-
Creating Learning Objectives
- A learning objective is a short statement of the goals and objectives that students should know or be able to put into practice after a lesson.
- A learning objective is a short statement of the goals and objectives that students should know or be able to put into practice after a lesson.
- Large-scale learning objectives will be articulated in a teacher's curriculum guide, but it is up to each individual teacher to formulate learning objectives for individual lesson plans.
- Teachers must find a way to disaggregate a large-scale learning objective (of the sort found in a curriculum guide) into a number of individual objectives.
- His learning objectives are built on the following template: VERB [which refers to a particular cognitive process] + OBJECT [which refers to the knowledge students are expected to acquire or construct].
-
Tangent Vectors and Normal Vectors
- The intersection formed by the two objects must be a right angle.
- An object is normal to another object if it is perpendicular to the point of reference.
- That means that the intersection of the two objects forms a right angle.
- These vectors can be found by obtaining the derivative of the reference vector, $\mathbf{r}(t)$:
- A plane can be determined as normal to the object if the directional vector of the plane makes a right angle with the object at its tangent point.
-
Weight
- Weight is taken as the force on an object due to gravity, and is different than the mass of an object.
- The mass of an object is an intrinsic quantity, independent of the location of the object.
- It is considered as the force on an object due to gravity.
- Mathematically, the weight of an object (W) can be found by multiplying its mass (m) by the acceleration due to gravity (g): $W=M\cdot g$.
- It is important to note that the apparent weight of an object (i.e., the weight of an object determined by a scale) will vary if forces other than gravity are acting upon the object .
-
Drag
- The drag force is the resistive force felt by objects moving through fluids and is proportional to the square of the object's speed.
- Like friction, the drag force always opposes the motion of an object.
- For most large objects such as bicyclists, cars, and baseballs not moving too slowly, the magnitude of the drag force $F_D$ is found to be proportional to the square of the speed of the object.
- This video walks through a single scenario of an object experiencing a drag force where the drag force is proportional to the object's velocity.
- Relate the magnitude of drag force to the speed of an object
-
Results
- The results section of a scientific paper objectively presents the empirical data collected in a study.
- Since the goal of the scientific paper is to present facts, use a formal, objective tone when writing.
- Passive voice is acceptable here: you can say "The stream was found to contain 0.27 PPM mercury," rather than "I found that the stream contained 0.27 PPM mercury."
- This is the part where it is the most difficult to be objective.
- Be objective—there will be time for interpretation later.
-
General Launch Angle
- The initial launch angle (0-90 degrees) of an object in projectile motion dictates the range, height, and time of flight of that object.
- The answers for those parts can be found at the bottom of the example:
- The path that the object follows is called its trajectory.
- The range, maximum height, and time of flight can be found if you know the initial launch angle and velocity, using the following equations:
- It can be found using the following equation:
-
Buddhist Stupas
- A stupa, literally meaning "heap," is a mound-like structure designed to encase Buddhist relics and other holy objects.
- Every stupa contains a treasury filled with various objects; small offerings, or Tsa-Tsas, fill the majority of the treasury, while jewelry and other precious objects are also placed within.
- It is believed that the more objects placed into the treasury, the stronger the stupa's energy.
- Object stupas, in which the objects belonging to Buddha or his disciples are buried;
- Describe the common features, as well as stylistic variations, found in Buddhist stupas.
