The term “snapshot” predates the invention of photography. From 1808, the term has meant “a quick or hurried shot taken without deliberate aim, esp. one at a rising bird or quickly moving animal.” It is strange to think that this hunting term for a spontaneous and haphazard reaction would ever be associated with the Nabis – those “prophets” of Modernism gathered around Maurice Denis’ assertion that a picture is essentially a flat surface covered with colors assembled in a certain order.

In February I wrote a couple of posts about the church of the Gesù, and how the Baroque made bombastic use of dramatic “special effects” to wow the faithful (here and here). In the 1600s art was one of the many tools used in drawing them ever closer to the Roman church, and away from the troublesome Protestants who continued to seek to underminine the Pope’s cause in Northern Europe. The undoubted star of the Roman Baroque, and perhaps the mastermind behind Il Baccicia’s ceiling at the Gesù, was  »

So you’ve heard of facial recognition used in user interfaces, on Facebook, and even as a law enforcement tool. But how about using it to identify 15th century works of art? Three University of California, Riverside academics recently won a $25,000 startup grant in the "digital humanities" from the National Endowment for the Humanities. They’ll use the money for a research project that would use facial recognition technology in areas that it historically hasn’t been used in. "What we want to do…  »
