>as it turns out, our brains process digital reading very differently. Manoush Zomorodi, managing editor and host of WNYC's New Tech City, recalls a conversation with the Washington Post's Mike Rosenwald, who's researched the effects of reading on a screen. “He found, like I did, that when he sat down to read a book his brain was jumping around on the page. He was skimming and he couldn’t just settle down. He was treating a book like he was treating his Twitter feed," she says.Neuroscience, in fact, has revealed that humans use different parts of the brain when reading from a piece of paper or from a screen. So the more you read on screens, the more your mind shifts towards "non-linear" reading — a practice that involves things like skimming a screen or having your eyes dart around a web page.

>“They call it a ‘bi-literate’ brain,” Zoromodi says. “The problem is that many of us have adapted to reading online just too well. And if you don’t use the deep reading part of your brain, you lose the deep reading part of your brain.”

>So what's deep reading? It's the concentrated kind we do when we want to "immerse ourselves in a novel or read a mortgage document,” Zoromodi says. And that uses the kind of long-established linear reading you don't typically do on a computer. “Dense text that we really want to understand requires deep reading, and on the internet we don’t do that.”

>“I don’t worry that we’ll become dumb because of the Internet,” Wolf says, "but I worry we will not use our most preciously acquired deep reading processes because we’re just given too much stimulation. That’s, I think, the nub of the problem.”
To keep the deep reading part of the brain alive and kicking, Zomorodi says that researchers like Wolf recommend setting aside some time each day to deep read on paper.

Hey guys I was wondering if I could start a daily/weekly thread which focuses on learning form and developing form.

After being here for years lurking and posting anonymously, I've found that a lot of beginners have major problems in developing/seeing form, I've noticed many other artists that are highly skilled in certain areas also lacking in this area.

So I thought, lets make a daily/weekly thread that focuses on simplifying and teaching the topic of form, this thread can be contributed to by the intermediate level anons in the board.

Its ultimately to help people learn what form is, how it works, how it affects painting and every other question related to it.

I'm thinking of making general tasks and guidelines. The goal is for beginners and intermediates alike to work together to complete said task and learn from one another.

For example, an intermediate level artist will complete the task to a good standard, then a beginner might look at the study and then reply to it asking how he/she did the study or certain elements relating to it.

Ideally, intermediate artists should also try to make a process, using gyazo or something to take screenshots throughout doing the task.

Pic related, I did a plate study from a reference provided in an old draw thread and found that it was very useful way of rendering out a solid image. The thread can also be contributed to by posting relevant reference material.

I'm only really going to put effort into the thread if anons would like to have something like this.


So who's up for it, would like to hear your comments?

Just came across this and since I know most of you are lazy unmotivated fucks who need discipline, I though it would be perfect for a study thread. So:

Hey /ic/,

Fine arts painting major (I love it to death) going out into the real world in May. As obvious as it sounds, it is frightening to know there isn't a 'job' for fine arts majors. A toooon of "experienced graphic designers with 3-5 years of experience."

I am interested in design. I know /basic/ photoshop and illustrator and a little bit of after effects. I /can/ draw digitally but it just isn't as natural to me as using a brush. I don't want to get another degree, but I am interested in taking more classes or something towards the digital world ($$$).

I dunno. Anyone else graduating soon? Any professionals with advice? anyone? : (

how likely am I to become a tattoo artist if I'm 22 years old and I've never tried drawing before?

I mean, not creative drawing, I've tried replicating existing images in the past, the results were satisfying but I've never drawn anything original myself

I've recently been offered a chance to join an art school for the rest of my high school life.
The thing is that I have to submit 10 drawings, 6 still life drawings/sketches and 4 other drawings showing my art style and such.
I can get through the 4 drawings just fine, heck id say i'm done with them, but with the other 6 i'm having a block of no inspiration.
If I could ask that you could give me some pictures, be it panoramas of landscapes or people, It would be great!

Rules are:
>no drawings
>no sketches
>no videos
>no paintings
