Description

Charles Csuri, in 1969 the first artist to receive a National Science Foundation grant, submitted this annual report for 1972 as director of Ohio State’s Computer Graphics Research Group. It covers the project of his second NSF grant, from 1971, “Software and Hardware Requirements for Real Time Film Animation.” The longest section is the graduate student Thomas DeFanti’s account of GRASS, his Graphics Symbiosis System, designed so that artists could explore computer art without a programmer. Mark Gillenson’s closing section is on generating the human face on a CRT.
