...CRIMSON reporter ignores the real issue of U.S. government suppression of Vietnamese people and American blacks. We object to ROTC not because we dislike Harvard, but because we object to the unjust and brutal policies pursued by the government around the world.

...Mirko does not preconceive an object. "I try to be free and to catch what is the essence." From the nucleus of an idea he enters into a dialogue-- a dialogue of eyes and hands and shape and what might be called soul.

Unlike Oldenburg's work, these works depict no recognizable object, but like it, they change with the touch of a human hand...
...thorniest problem is the eye; for in order to analyze a visual scene a great deal of knowledge about the physical world is needed--knowledge that computers have barely begun to acquire. The method used here is to scan with a camera a scene containing light object on a dark table. The varying light intensity is expressed as logarithms which direct successive scans until a fairly sharp idea of the objects' boundaries are obtained. After many steps an accurate two-dimensional mapping of the scene is completed and translation into three-dimensional models begins. Knowledge from many levels must interact...
