The Dot and the Line: A Romance in Lower Mathematics

On Tuesday nights I teach Design Elements at SVC and last night was our second class together. As we were doing some point, line and plane in-class excersises, one of my students directed me to this animation, and watched it as a class. I know I have seen it before, but has been a long time. Nevertheless, I was stoked and the class was stoked, not only because it’s nostalgic, but because it is a really wonderful teaching tool. It clearly explains the dot and line’s fundamental role in graphic design in a way that a wide audience can understand. This was made back in 1963 and is still relevant and inspiring today.  Well done Chuck.

p.s. I’m really psyched about this new class. Yallz rock.
