Noticeably Clearer. Nonetheless, Stroke says, all of the details of the photographed object are contained in the picture. The overlapping of spots, no matter how blurred the image, can be expressed in complex mathematical terms called Fourier transforms. Applying mathematical theory to holography, which also produces interference patterns that can be expressed by Fourier transforms, Stroke set up the optical equivalent of an equation. Using laser light, he made two transparencies -one of the blurred photograph of a microscope, the other of a purposely blurred picture of a spot of light shot by the same camera. Then he produced...

...transparency of the blurred microscope photograph and then through a "dividing" filter that consisted of both the hologram and the transparency of the blurred spot of light; in mathematical terms, he had thus divided one transform by another. Projected onto film the beam produced a crude but noticeably clearer picture of the microscope. Stroke had solved his optical equation...

...unconducted, and that created obstacles to the flow from composer to listener. Buswell's head and body gestures did not keep the orchestra together or effect good ritardandi, and the reduced orchestra sounded best in the parts of the slow movement that Buswell actually conducted. Here he created a clearer pulse, sensitive phrasing of the bass line, and even, mysteriously, better intonation...

...heart specialist, Paul Dudley White, seized his moment of national prominence to lecture the public repeatedly on its deplorable shape, suggesting that the tone of the body has much to do with the pace of the mind. "The better the legs," said White, still bicycling today at 81, "the clearer the brain." There is little doubt that some triggering was necessary. For the first time in history, a society found itself so advanced materially that human beings no longer got enough exercise in the search for sustenance. Estimates suggest that 40 million Americans have a temperamental indisposition to any kind...

...including toys, appliances and scientific equipment. The show represents the 130 best-designed items of 1967, selected from among 1,000 U.S. entries by Industrial Design, a magazine that has hitherto saluted the annual winners by publishing photographs. Now, with the objects themselves on display, it be comes even clearer where handsome designs are prevalent in daily life - and where they are conspicuously lacking...
