"This work is created in Microsoft Word." ISTHISART_159? Ja, "Bubbles" von Dihav Gnaro.<\/p><\/div>\n

Via <\/strong>BELIO Magazins<\/strong> <\/em>Galeria <\/strong>[1]<\/a>, \u00fcber die immer wieder interessante Illustrationen und Fotos hochgesp\u00fclt werden, ist mir diese umfangreichere Flickr-Sammlung mit teils <\/strong>wunderbaren Op-Art-Grafiken<\/strong><\/span> aufgefallen \u2013 der Fotostream von Dihav-Gnaro.<\/strong>[2]<\/a><\/p>\n

Op Art oder abstrakter Futurismus hin oder her; da sind schon eine Menge sch\u00f6ner Spielereien darunter, aber auch einiges von zweifelhafterer Qualit\u00e4t. Aber das Schockierendste ist die Liner Note von “Dihav-Gnaro”, in der er versichert: “This work was created in Microsoft Word<\/em>“. WTF? Wie hat er das denn gemacht? Hier seine Antwort: [3]<\/a><\/p>\n

“Dihav-Gnaro\u2019s Rules of Engagement: :)<\/strong><\/div>\n
Rule #1: Vector trumps raster!<\/strong><\/div>\n
1.1. The use of MS-Word to draw is NOT masochistic!<\/div>\n
Rule #2: Precision is king!<\/strong><\/div>\n
2.1. Use grid. Snap to it!<\/div>\n
2.2. Use straight lines and circles.<\/div>\n
2.3. Circular arcs (only quadrants) are your friends!<\/div>\n
2.4. Avoid loose ends!<\/div>\n
Rule #3: Define a set of rules for your drawing! Adhere to them at all cost!<\/strong><\/div>\n
3.1. Keep the rules as simple as possible!<\/div>\n
3.2. Define as few rules as possible!<\/div>\n
3.3. Computer-generated art is awesome!<\/div>\n
Rule #4: Symmetry is not evil!<\/strong><\/div>\n
4.1. Point symmetry is preferable to line symmetry.<\/div>\n
Rule #5: Colors should be harmonious.<\/strong><\/div>\n
5.1. Use as few colors as possible!<\/div>\n
5.2. Black and white is always a good choice!<\/div>\n
5.3. Use transparency to mix raw colors! Don\u2019t be a hero!<\/div>\n
Rule #6: Irregular curves are not welcome!<\/strong><\/div>\n
6.1. Use Splines if you must!<\/div>\n
6.2. Use ovals if you must!<\/div>\n
Rule #7: Ignore the above rules whenever you feel like it!”<\/strong><\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Das alles erinnert mich an den legend\u00e4ren Slogan der BetonMarketing GmbH [4]<\/a> “Beton \u2013 Es kommt darauf, was man daraus macht.” Und vielleicht ist das Ganze eine besonders hinterh\u00e4ltig virale Microsoft-Kampagne, um ihre bleiernen B\u00fcrosoftware-Suite kreativen Esprit einzuhauchen.<\/p>\n

Mission accomplished!<\/p>\n
