Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I study in the American University of Paris and I was lucky enough to take the LOGO - Visual Thinking course in my freshman year with Professor Clayson, the author of this book. I am inclined to think that anybody who might want to take advantage of an utterly simply computational environment to explore tiles, matrices, objects, etc. visually would be very interested in this book. It gives you theory and indications of using perhaps one of the most easily operated and logical computer languages available to be able to look at various visual objects and ideas. I highly recommend this book to anybody who is attracted to non-traditional ways of thinking and problem-solving, which involves building of simplified models to make sense of more complex ideas.

Filled with striking illustrations, this book offers an exciting exploration of Logo graphics for designers, architects, liberal arts students, and other individuals who are interested in creative applications of computers.Visual Modeling with Logo introduces the programming concepts necessary for describing and manipulating some of the basic visual structures in the world around us. Logo is a language that encourages visual problem-solving and helps us expand our understanding of how we see.The book provides a wide range of exercises for investigating the many dimensions and component parts of seeing; it proceeds from the simple to the complex, using representative models based on circular grids, rectangular grids, Islamic designs, organic forms, and different spatial systems.James Clayson is an Associate Professor at the American College in Paris. He wrote Visual Modeling with Logo for a course he created at the Parsons School of Design, Paris. It is included in the series Explorations in Logo, edited by E. Paul Goldenberg.
