Status:: Finished
1. Operation data
Internal number: OB_020
Operational regime: Translation Between Representation Systems
Source image: Photograph
Operational description:
A script is created to generate topographic lines based on volume.
2. Tools, procedure, and Variables
A script is created that first recognizes the sphere and then the background. The variables are the number of lines used to create the volume of the image. It is not possible to control where the lines will pass.

6. Crisis and formal-perceptual reading
The operation affects the visual grammar of the image: form, contour, color, figure/ground relationship, legibility, recognition, and support:
The crisis is due to the amount of lines; the form, the contour, and their relationship with the background are gradually lost. Color disappears; work is done exclusively on form.
7. Final evaluation and artistic reference
Operation notes / what I learned:
It works with a raster image and the mediation is algorithmic, but the result of its translation is in another representation system, which is a topographic image.
Final_status:
Works:: YES
